#BackToSchool
I just want to thank all of our students and parents for being so patient with us the last few days. We understand all of the procedures are taking longer than normal, but we are doing all we can to make sure everyone stays healthy!! We are so happy to be back! You would never know that we hadn't been in school since March! The kiddos came back in on Monday and never missed a beat. I am so proud of all of them!
Second graders worked on Seesaw today by posting goofy videos 🤣

PGS PARENTS/GUARDIANS PLEASE READ
Parents who are dropping off their child/children in the mornings and picking them up...
**Drop off-
PLEASE, continue to use the semi-circle drive and keep your children in the vehicle until they are called to the red tent to be symptom checked. We will then wave at you to leave once they have been checked. This will make everything flow more smoothly. We understand that the wait may be longer, but we will all get the hang of it and it will get quicker each day. Drop off time is between 8:10-8:20. Students will NOT be allowed in the building until 8:!0 if they are a car rider, walker, or bike rider.
**Pick up -
Use the semi circle drive just like last year. Pull up past the red tent to the first sidewalk. It would be greatly appreciated if you have your child's name on a piece of in your windshield. We know some of the vehicles, but this will speed up the dismissal process.
Thank you for your patience as we work through our procedures to keep everyone safe and social distanced!!
Teachers learning all about how to teach remotely and in-person! We are ready for our students on Monday!

I made a mistake on the the yearly calendar. I forgot to add that we have no school on Labor Day. I have updated the calendar on our website. Labor Day weekend is a 4 day weekend, because we also have September 8th - No school!
