Congratulations to this group of students and teacher who had their Pronghorn Pride Ticket drawn this week. These students were caught either modeling a school-wide expectation or showing ownership for their learning. Way to be #PronghornStrong!

All books are now DUE!

Notices will be sent home for missing books. If books are lost, a replacement fee will be due.

Please double check those bookshelves, bedrooms, and backpacks over the next few days!

Beginning May 23, we will be collecting student devices and accessories checked out at the beginning of the year. An inventory of items will be completed for each student as well as a visual inspection of the device and several system checks to assess the working condition of the devices.

School Issued Device Information

Grades K-4 – Devices will be assessed and checked in for the summer before the end of the school year. Returning students will be reissued a device in the fall. (If you need the device for the summer, you will need to contact Amy Senethavilay to make arrangements prior to the end of the year.

Grade 5 – Devices will go home with the student for the summer and be taken to their respective middle school for the start of 6th grade. Within the first few weeks of the next school year, their current device will be assessed and exchanged for a new device.

NOTE: During the collection process, all devices will be assessed for any damage that occurred during the year. Damaged devices that were not covered by a Device Protection plan will be billed to families through Rycor, our online payment platform.

Annual Optional Device Protection

Families who enrolled in optional device protection for the 21-22 school year will have device coverage throughout the summer until Oct 3, 2022.

It’s not too late to sign up for device protection! Early enrollment for the 22-23 school year begins on May 2, 2022. Enroll in our optional device protection early (May 2 – August 1) at a reduced cost of $20 per device. Coverage begins as soon as payment is received and will provide device protection until Oct 2023!

• Students can wear hats and sunglasses but are responsible for their items.

Teachers will be sending out a survey to capture the lunch orders, as well as to capture some specific information about that day. Thank you for getting that information completed by this coming Friday, May 27.

It is an early release on this last day of school (1:25 pm). If you choose to check your student out at the end of the picnic, you will do so at the tables provided. Also, please be sure to have ID should there be questions from our staff if we are not familiar with you.

PVE has received several calls from our neighbors regarding speed in the neighborhoods and concerns with blocked driveways or trash in yards. We are asking for your help with being good neighbors.

Please make sure you are leaving crosswalks open, not blocking drives or mailboxes, and that you are not waiting for long periods. Neighbors have also asked that you make sure you are not using their garbage cans for yourself.

We also ask that you slow down your driving through the neighborhoods and be extra vigilant about students and bikes. Although these are public streets, we would like to make sure PVE is in good standing with our surrounding neighbors.

Below is an informational flyer for families to sign up for the new TITAN Parent Portal. Here families can see menu's, set up online payments. In addition, effective August 1st, families can fill out the 22/23 free and reduced meal application.

Meals will be transitioning back to paid status for the 22/23 school year.

Please be sure to call into the office or email Jenene Hill at hill.jenene@westada.org if your child is out absent.

If your child has an appointment, please be sure to get a verification form from the provider to allow the school to change the coding for attendance. If your child has a standing appointment weekly/monthly, you can get the letter from the provider for the length of time to share with the office to allow for proper coding.

*Per district policy, an unverified absence will convert to truancy unless verbal communication is received from a parent/guardian within 48 hours (counts against attendance standard).
