Champions Together- Titan Games 2026!

Marguerite E. Peaslee Elementary School
GROWING MINDS~BUILDING COMMUNITY~INSPIRING POSSIBILITY
Dear Peaslee Students, Families and Caregivers,
​
On Friday, October 2, 2025, our halls were filled with cheers and school spirit as we celebrated our student-athletes participating in the Titan Games! Students lined the halls for a special clapout, showing their support and pride for our athletes. It was an inspiring reminder of the power of community and the importance of lifting one another up in our achievements. We are so proud of our athletes and the way our entire Peaslee community came together to celebrate inclusion, teamwork, and perseverance.

Thank-you to our student-athletes, Mrs. Fitzgerald, all of our dedicated teachers, and Educational Support Professionals, students, and families who helped make this day such a memorable and meaningful event!

We will see many of you for Ed Camp on Friday afternoon! 
​

Enjoy the weekend! As always, please reach out if you have any questions. 

​
Dr. Mary Coakley, Principal
