She has done an amazing job inspiring, teaching, and practicing with our Second Grade Students to present their program, We Give Thanks, this evening! It was such a blessing to everyone! I heard so many compliments as parents and families were leaving. I'm still singing about leaves falling in my head! Wonderful job Mrs. Scott and Second Grade Students!🦃❤️🍁🍁🐲 Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you so much Dragon families for giving of your heart last week to our Holiday Food Drive. We had 1,279 food items donated. The food collected will go back to families in our community through the Lil' Dragon Food Pantry and Operation Christmas. Mrs. Haynes 1st grade class collected the most items and will receive popsicles! Way to go!

PES October Teacher & Staff of the Month: Special Education teacher Mrs. Taryn Johnston & Reading Assistant Mrs. Barbara Smith Read what their colleagues had to say about them: Taryn: She is a Rock Star! She is always up for any challenge handed to her! She is always willing to help even with students that are not hers! She works so hard and provides the best care for the kids in her class! She does her job with the best foot forward, works so hard for her kids and loves them like her own! Taryn shows so much care and compassion towards each of her students. She is always very positive and seriously has a heart of gold. She shows dragon cares by working with everyone to do what’s best for the kids. She always has an awesome Attitude and is someone I enjoy coming to work and seeing. She has empathy with everyone and especially the kids and tries to see things from their point of view. Taryn goes above and beyond for so many teachers as well as students. She works so hard and doesn’t stop. Barbara Smith: She is always willing to help wherever she is needed!! She has saved me countless times by coming in and helping with whatever I have going on!! She is an incredible human! She is always jumping in to help, no matter the task. She volunteers to help teachers stay organized, keep an eye on classes, clean up disaster spills in the cafeteria. Anywhere she sees a need, she’s on it! She is always willing to help!!

Thank you parents and grandparents for bringing students out tonight for our Fall into Learning Night at PES! It was a fun time playing Literacy games together and having some yummy treats. We had such a great time together! 🍁🐲❤️ Thank you and we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! We need some help. We had free books offered in the PreK hall but if you picked up books from the cafeteria we need these back. They belong to our classroom teachers. These were just to read here and enjoy a story with your child. I am sorry for any confusion and would be willing to let your child trade it for another book. Thank you for your help and thank you for such a great evening of fun together!🍁❤️🐲🎉

Remember to wear red, white, and blue or camo tomorrow to honor our Veterans. Thank you to our very own Coach V for his service!🐲❤️🇺🇸 We are so grateful for all of our service men and women and for their sacrifices! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸🐲 It's FREE hat day Friday 🇺🇸🎓🎩👒🤠
