Kindergarten has been busy in Wit & Wisdom! Students worked with Ms. Kayla Davidson (a PCS technology coach) on recording their stories about farm animals, and learned about life in America as it was in the past! Activities included a telephone activity, feather and ink experience, and butter churning!







Today was Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. We are beyond thankful for our School Resource Officer, Deputy George! You are an undeniable asset to our school and our students and staff are very appreciative to have you with us each day!



No, we're not in mourning..."Black Out" was our theme today!



Today’s theme for "Underground Spirit Week" - Dress like Royalty! This must've been an easy one because all of the students figured it out quickly!



It's an Underground Spirit Week! That means, the TEACHERS have a secret theme every day, and the students have to try and figure it out. Today, we traded our water bottles and coffee cups for crayon boxes, trash cans, and even Mandalorian helmets! It was "Anything But A Cup" Day!


Welcome back tomorrow! We can't wait to see everyone!


We wish everyone a happy, safe winter break, and we'll see you in the new year!


Kindergarten invited parents into the classroom to join a Heggerty lesson and then decorate a cookie with their student! #OnePender
