Last call for sneakers! We'll be shipping off most of the sneakers this week to be recycled. If you'd like the opportunity to purchase any sneakers, stop into the office this week to check them out. There is a whole box of cleats in great condition, along with summer shoes, hiking boots, sneakers, etc. We are asking for a $5-10 donation per pair for the Sixth Grade Class. If you find something that works for you, take them and pay with Venmo. more information is posted near the shoes. Finally, if you haven't dropped off your used sneakers yet, now is the time. We'll keep them out of the landfill for you! We're still deciding if we will keep this fundraiser going on a smaller scale. Thank you for your support of the Sixth Grade Class!

Just a reminder that Hat & Kite Day is tomorrow, April 21st. Partner Up classes will be flying kites together during the last block of the day (around 2 pm.) It's supposed to be a nice day...just hope for a breeze :). Last year, PES provided all the kites. As mentioned in a previous update (April 3) we ask that students supply their own kites: "Kites should be no more than 3' wide. We will have a LOT of kites in the air. Once again, upper grades students will help their lower-grade partner-up classes fly their kites so as long as each pair has one kite to fly, they will be all set." NOTE: We will have extra kites on hand so please don't worry if you have not had a chance to find one (many stores are sold out!) Students are encouraged to wear their favorite hat as well!
