Dear Pine Tree Families,
As winter finishes up, we have a very busy end to the school year in front of us. This month, we are hosting several Parent Teacher Conference days, starting on Thursday, March 12th, we also have conferences on Wednesday, March 18th and Thursday, March 26th. If you have not signed up for a conference, you still have time. If you are having trouble, you can reach out to the main office for help.
Our Annual Science Fair will be on Monday, March 16th at 5 PM. I hope you will be able to join us. Even if you are not presenting, it's a nice event to see all the great projects that the students work on.
Students start their Spring Break the week of March 29th. Starting in April, students in Grades 3, 4 and 5 will be participating in the New York State assessments in both ELA and Math. The 5th Grade Science assessment will be in May. There are many PTA events, set up for the students, as we complete the school year. It is not too late to sign up and register to be on our PTA, all proceeds go to support our students.
Lastly, our Pine Tree Drama Club presents Finding Nemo Jr. this month with performances on:
Friday, March 13th at 7 PM
Saturday, March 14th at 2 PM
(The snow date for this event is Sunday, March 15th at 2 PM)
We hope to see you there!!!!
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We appreciate all you do to support Pine Tree Elementary and look forward to a productive month ahead.
Warmly,
Robert German
Pine Tree Principal

Free Meals - All Students
2025-2026 School Year Reminder
All students enrolled at Monroe-Woodbury Central School District are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch in school at no charge to your household each day of the 2025-2026 school year.
All students will be able to participate in these meal programs on the first day of school without having to pay a fee or submit an application. All schools provide a breakfast program for students upon entry into school and a lunch program for students in the cafeteria.
School meal programs offer breakfast and lunch meals that meet strict federal nutrition standards, aligned with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and are planned with student preferences in mind. If packing food from home, students can add to their home brought lunch at no cost by choosing at least three of the five items offered, (e.g., low fat milk, proteins, whole grains, vegetables, and fruits), one of which must be a vegetable or fruit. We invite students to show their support for their school food service program through participation.
