What a great start to the school year! It was awesome to see 90% of our students at Return to Learn Days. Cardinal Olympics day was full of collaboration, fun, and school spirit.
Our New Champions: The Nasty Narwhals from Mrs. Kelly's class came out on top this year.
Parents, we need your help!
Arriving at school safely and on time is imperative to start the day off right for all students.
Please have your child to school between 7:30 and 7:50.
Student drop-off and pick-up occur on ELM Street (Across from the ParK). The turnaround is for Bus traffic only. Procedures for PIS can be found here.
Thank you for helping us keep arrival and dismissal safe and smooth!
Our One School, One Book selection this year is The Journal of Otto Peltonen.
Otto’s family immigrates from Finland to Minnesota, where his father works in an iron mine. They are eventually able to leave mining behind and start a new life on a farm. We will be reading and discussing this book throughout September. Please ask your student often about the read-aloud.

With the beginning of the school year, everyone is adjusting to new routines and we expect some hiccups in arrival times. Now that we have had two full weeks of school to adjust, tardiness has begun to count towards your child’s attendance. At PIS a warning bell rings at 7:50 and students are expected to be at their desks ready for the day by 7:55, the official start to the school day.
I want to take a moment to discuss the importance of punctuality for your child’s success at school. Arriving on time not only sets a positive tone for the day but also helps students fully engage in their learning experience.
Here are a few key reasons why being on time to school is crucial:
Academic Readiness: Late arrivals can disrupt not only your child’s focus but also the entire class. Missing the start of a lesson can lead to gaps in understanding.
Routine and Responsibility: Punctuality fosters a sense of responsibility and helps students develop essential life skills, such as time management.
Social Interaction: Arriving on time allows students to connect with their peers before class, fostering friendships and a sense of belonging.
Respect for Others: Being on time shows respect for teachers and classmates, contributing to a positive classroom environment.
I appreciate your support in having your child arrive at school with enough time to be ready for learning and at the desks when the school day starts at 7:55. Together, we can help them make the most of their educational experience.
The safety of our students is very important in every decision we make including making weather-related closings. As these decisions are made we will make every effort to notify families and staff as soon as we are able to confirm the conditions are truly materializing and not just speculation. Please review all the things that are considered with winter weather closings.
With the cold temperatures upon us, students must be dressed appropriately. They will need winter boots, winter coats, snow pants, hats and mittens or gloves.
