Congratulations Ruby McKee on Receiving This Month's Core Value Award for Respect!
Each month an Everett Public Schools student can be nominated by their teacher who demonstrates the Core Value of the Month. The nominations are sent to Administration where students are selected to be recognized as a Core Value Champion.
Mrs. Hinds nominated Ruby for exemplifying the Core Value of the Month, Respect. Here’s what she wrote about Ruby…
"Ruby shows respect at school by being polite, kind, and an active listener. She also shares supplies and takes turns with her classmates."
Coming Soon! Progress Due, November 1
Log on and record your student's progress for each subject taught at home since the last time you reported.
Many Hands Make Light Work in our Cafeteria!
Our cafeteria serves another group of students right after the PGS lunch time. Please help this transition by spraying and wiping down your table when your party is finished eating.
Gloves, spray bottles, and micro cloths are available in the corner behind the salad bar.
THANK YOU!
