•When we return from Christmas break, a phone call and text will be sent to the first two PowerSchool contacts for any student who is absent that day. You should expect to receive that call between 9:20 a.m. and 9:45 a.m.
•Please remember that although absences for exams are counted by semester, the number of absences for truancy is for the entire school year.
o When a student is absent, an excuse must be turned in within 3 days of the student’s return to school.
o Once a student has reached 10 absences, all absences after that will only be excused with a medical or legal excuse.

A big thank you to the PES Sunshine Committee and Coop's coffee station for the fantastic surprise consisting of amazing coffee and cookies this week! It was delicious!

Our after school program will be on Monday and Tuesday ONLY this week as we prepare for the upcoming Christmas break.
