GROWING MINDS~BUILDING COMMUNITY~INSPIRING POSSIBILITY
Dear Peaslee Students, Families and Caregivers,
​

We will welcome fifth-grade families to the cafeteria this Thursday, November 12th, for our annual Music Informance! In alignment with the First Performance National Day of Celebration, our 4th and 5th graders are excited to showcase what they’ve learned in classroom music, band, and chorus.


Leading up to the event on November 12th, students are encouraged to perform their music at home and collect a box of cereal as a donation to our local food pantry. 


Please send cereal donations to school during your child’s final music lesson before the Informance. Students who cannot perform at home may perform for the music teacher at school instead.

Thank you for helping us support our community through participation in raising funds and attending the fun run! We will continue to celebrate these accomplishments this week with a suprise for students on Thursday and Board Game Time on November 18th! Volunteers needed! More information about this event will be sent out soon!

If you haven't already done so, please check your inbox for an email sent on November 3rd from your child's classroom teacher to sign up for a conference. The sign-up window closes on Friday, November 13th AT 6:00PM .


*****Please remember to complete the google form sign up for lunch orders and dismissal plans next week on or before November 13th at 1:00PM See Form Below.

Dr. Mary Coakley, Principal
