PQ Tuesday Newsday

Hope your week is off to a good start! The excitement leading up to spring break is always palpable in the building. The students are looking forward to getting a little break from the daily routine and enjoying some of the spring weather. But before we get to break, there are still many activities to keep our students engaged. On Thursday, 3/30, our 1st-grade concert will occur at 6 pm. This will be a first for PQ, and we are excited to see the production! In addition, on Friday the 31st, our K students will have a visit from writer Bill Thomson. Such a great way to end the week!

When we return: The week of April 10th, the PQ Book Fair will be set up in the multipurpose room. On Thursday the 13th, we will see all PQ parents in the building for Parent Teacher Conferences. Please be sure to sign up for a conference through PTC Wizard.

Back by popular demand, we are thrilled to announce our spring Adult/Child Book Club Night for 4th and 5th Graders at PQ. The event will take place on May 18th. Please see below for all the details.

Everyone enjoy the break and spend plenty of time with family and friends!
