Popsicles on the Playground
The PPPS Volleyball future is bright! PPHS Volleyball players showed our Core Value of Kindness by helping Volleyball Coach Duchene run the 2023 Summer Volleyball Camp for 3rd - 8th grade students. They had an amazing turnout of over 50 kids, who worked with coaches and each other to learn and practice skills, such as tossing, passing, setting, serving and much more! #volleyballcamp #buildtogetherpawpaw

Due to the popularity of the PPPS Early Childhood Education (ECE) Program, families are encouraged to enroll children as soon as possible for this fall! At this time, the 4-year-old classroom is full, but there's still time to add your child's name to a waiting list. Several spots are still open for the 3-year-old class, and when that class is full, another waiting list will be started. Currently, space is available in the 2 1/2 - to 3-year-old class and the preschool-readiness room, but these are also filling quickly. For more information, please contact the ECE Director: melinda.brennan@ppps.org.
If you're looking for an exciting new adventure for your 5 to 12-year-old child this summer, there are a limited number of spots open in the all-new PPPS BASE Summer Camp!

Registration forms and camp fees should be returned to the Cedar Street Campus and will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. For questions, email Lacey Jackson at lacey.jackson@ppps.org
