Testing

Parents, we are preparing for our state standardized testing to begin in the next week or so.  This year, we will be taking the ASPIRE test.  You can read more about the test here.

Reading will be on Tuesday, May 6.

Math will be on Wednesday, May 7.

*Please make sure your child is present and on time these days.  We want to make sure we're not rushed or stressed the mornings of these tests.

*Be sure your child eats a nutritious breakfast so they're not hungry during the test, and have energy to think and perform well!

*Encourage your student to work hard and try their best!

*Be sure that your child gets to bed on time or early the night before the test.

I'm Back

Thank you for all of your well wishes over the past several weeks. While it was a little difficult to leave my baby today, it sure made it easier coming back to such a sweet class! I'm glad to be able to finish the year out with such a great group.

PCElympics

The time is quickly approaching for our annual PCElympics! All our competitions will be held during your child’s PE time during the week of May 5-8.  They will compete in Tug-of-War, Dress the Teachers Relay, and many more team games.  At the end of the week (Friday, May 9), we will have our closing ceremonies which will consist of water slides, sprinklers, slip-n-slides, games and snacks.  This year we will also give you the opportunity to order a PCElympics t-shirt.  The shirts will be $10 each and will be worn during our closing ceremony celebration. All money and order forms are due by Wednesday, April 8.  Checks must be written out to PCES and include driver’s license number and phone number.

Order forms went home today! Please see a coach for more information.

Introducing...

So many of you have been so kind to check on me after the delivery of my son.  I couldn't resist showing off a few pictures of my new little man.

Landon

He is healthy and perfect!  We are resting (when we can) and enjoying being a family of four.  Big brother, Eli, is especially proud!

Thank you again for your kind messages, thoughts, and prayers for our family!  And, of course, I am missing my 19 friends at school!
