(SAT) 10/24 5-7pm Trunk or Treat
Marco's pizza box nights have been scheduled!
This is a big Spirit Night Fundraiser for PSE that takes place throughout the year based on Grade Levels.
How it Works...
Students will decorate their pizza boxes in Art class.
Boxes will be delivered to Marco's Pizza (Duval and 183 location).
On your Grade Level night, you can order pizza, and it will be served in your child's decorated pizza box.
20% of all orders will be donated back to PSE.
Parent permission WILL BE REQUIRED to send your child's pizza box to Marco's. Permission forms will go out closer to each grade level date.

Does your child love to sing, dance, or act? Or all of the above!? Then this fun filled camp may be just the thing to start off the summer.
Set sail with the scally wag group of blue beards, yellow beards, white beards, purple beards, and and no beards as they embark upon a journey across the “High C’s”.
But wait!
Shiver me timbers! There is a stowaway! What shall they do?
Join the fun to “C” what happens.
June 1-4 & 8-11 from 9:00 am - 3:30 pm. Pearson Ranch MS
