NO SCHOOL--President's Day

March 1

All Art Competition entries due to the front office! No late entries will be accepted.

See the information below for more on this event.

Please be sure to watch for those PeachJar emails from the school and district. Many of the community events or after school activities sponsored by outside entities are shared through this system. We currently have an art class that will start on 2/2 through one of the venders. Look for that information or feel free to contact the school for more information about how you can enroll your student.

These Pronghorn Ladies were crowned the first place winners in their division at the Regional Reflections Art Competition. They are now moving onto the state competition! Good luck, ladies! Pleasant View is proud of you!

It is time for the annual District Art Show artwork projects to start. This year's theme is “Art as Escape”

Artwork and artist statements must reflect the theme to be considered for additional community awards. If your child is interests in participating, please see the attached documents. All entries must be received to the front office by March 1. Only ONE piece of art will be sent to the district office for the art show. All other pieces submitted will be displayed at the building.

*The art show awards reception is tentatively set for Thursday, April 22rd. As we get closer to that date in the spring, we will determine if it will be an in-person or virtual event depending on the current Covid-19 situation.

We are seeing a large influx of tardies and would like your help to make sure students are at school and in their seat by 9:10 am. If your child is eating breakfast in the am, please be sure to get your child here by 8:45 am to allow for plenty of time to eat. All students are expected to be in the classroom by 9:10 am, and the kitchen closes to transition to make lunch at this time.

Also, if your child has an appointment during school hours, please be sure to get an appointment slip. Those slips should be summited to the office to change the attendance code and waive the absence or tardy.

We appreciate your help with these two matters. If you have further questions, please feel free to reach out to Amy Senethavilay or Judy Davis.

Parents, I know you have not been to the building for activities this year, but if you happen to have an amazing picture from the school, an event, or even of your child working at home during remote learning time and you would like to share it with our Yearbook Committee, we would appreciate those pictures.

Please email those picture in original size to PleasantViewPTAYearbook@gmail.com

Parents,

As we work hard to create the building procedures and firmly establish the culture within our building, we will be seeking feedback from you. Please be looking for an electronic survey to come your way in the next couple of week. We will be asking about your thoughts in regard to the safety and collaboration within the building. Your time and efforts in providing feedback is greatly appreciated and will be used to continue to make changes and improve our practices.

More information to come soon!

In the meantime, you ALWAYS have access to the Pronghorn Ponderings Input Form, Safety or Peer Concern Form, or my email.
