Dear Peaslee Students, Families and Caregivers,
It was wonderful to see so many families at our annual Peaslee Open House last night! Thank you to all our new and returning families, it was a true pleasure connecting with you! The students were thrilled to show their families around, and it was fantastic watching everyone tackle the scavenger hunt together. We have had a great start to the school year, and making connections between students, staff and families continues to be an amazing way to kick off the year.
A few special shout-outs:
-
PTO Welcome Back Gathering: Thank you to our PTO for organizing a fantastic event to bring our community together!
-
5th Grade Trip Fundraising: We greatly appreciate everyone who came out to support our fifth graders as they begin raising funds for their Nature's Classroom trip this spring.
Have a wonderful weekend, and a great week ahead!
Dr. Mary Coakley, Principal
