Only 3 more days to earn Boo Bucks here at school! Almost all classes are close to getting to wear their costumes to school on Monday. Classes must earn 14 boo bucks to do this. Also 5th grade is in the lead with the most boo bucks with 19! They will get to get to trick or treat in every class if they keep their lead!

Day 3 of Red Ribbon Week!
Day 2 of Red Ribbon Week!
Get ready for Red Ribbon Week!
All kids involved in bullying—whether they are bullied, bully others, or see bullying—can be affected. It is important to support all kids involved to make sure the bullying doesn’t continue and effects can be minimized.
Some kids feel more comfortable by not going to an adult and we have been working on a solution to this! We are introducing our PGS Bullying Incident Form, in which you can find on our school website. The form will be sent directly to administration. From there, PGS staff will take the next steps needed. We want all of our kids to feel safe and welcome at school.
Ways to access the form:
