Sir George is back, the popular character created by Paw Paw Social & Emotional Learning Teacher Ben Bowater, and this time he is helping students get ready for returning to school with health and safety in mind.
This fun, informative video will help your child think about and visualize social distancing, hygiene, and good health and safety practices in school. Please share it with your child, and have conversations about it as a family so your child is ready to return to school like Paw Paw's favorite knight in shining armor, Sir George.

Later Elementary Families:
Our yearbooks have finally arrived.
We will have them available for any family that ordered one with their child's picture package the week of August 3rd.
Office hours will be Monday through Friday from 9:00-3:00. We will stay open until 6:30 on Wednesday, August 5th for those that are not able to stop by during the day.
We apologize for not having them available next week as we are currently re-configuring classrooms in preparation for the school year.
Our Summer Feeding Program has started. Don't miss out on a great opportunity for your family. Meals will be available at the high school or at the Early Elementary from 10am to 12pm on Monday through Thursday until August 13th. Both sites are "Park/walk up & order." Please be courteous by following the required CDC guidelines for a required mask and following social distancing.
Last night was our 5th Grade Graduation Drive-In Event. The weather wouldn't cooperate, so we couldn't show the video presentation. Overall, it was a huge success, because our 5th grade family had a lot of fun, created some lasting memories, and we ended the year together. Thank you to all of our 5th grade teachers, our PPLE staff volunteers, the Elementary Campus PTO, as well as Mr. McNitt and Mr. Rodriguezfor taking pictures. Congratulations 5th grade and welcome to Middle School!
