We would love to collect any PSE blue shirts that students may have sized out of for PSE Field Trips.
To make it easy, we have place a donation bin by the front entrance of the office where families can drop them off starting Friday, 1/16.

The cafeteria would love to welcome parent volunteers to help with lunch monitor duties. Volunteers will assist with everything from opening those pesky juice boxes to encouraging positive behavior with a smile!
Lunchtimes have been extended this year! Students will now be in the cafeteria from 10:20 to 12:51.
FRIDAYS NEED MORE HELP!!!
Can't stay the whole time? No problem! We welcome any amount of help — feel free to sign up even if you can only stay for part of your selected slot.
GENTS (Guys Engaging and Nurturing Tomorrow's Scholars) is a PSE's men's volunteer group.
Our goals are simple:
Give students more opportunities to interact with positive male role models.
Lend a hand at key school events like the Winter Carnival.
We’re starting small — just one hour a week from one male volunteer on campus—and we’ll grow from there.
After you sign up, we'll be in touch to confirm your role and schedule.
