Staff and Parent Spotlight
We want to highlight staff members and parent volunteers who go above and beyond to make our school the magical place that it is.
Staff Member: Erin Schlueter
Ms. Schlueter does so much to support her Kindergarten students and our entire school community. Ms. Schlueter always organizes ice cream sales on Fridays which the kids love and funds extra things for our students. She is invested in our community and supports students and staff with anything and everything!

Bailey, a dedicated member of our school community, has made significant contributions through her involvement in the PTA. As the PTA secretary, she efficiently manages administrative tasks, ensuring smooth communication and coordination within the organization. Beyond her official role, Bailey actively participates in fundraising events, leveraging her passion for community support. Thank you, Bailey!
Volunteers Needed for Field Day on the Last Day of School (Friday, June 7)
The PACS Leadership students are putting on their annual Field Day on the last day of school - Friday, June 7. They could use a dozen parents during each shift (grades TK-3, 4-6, and 7-8) plus a few helpers to clean up at the end of the day.
This is a great way to send our students off into summer! For more details and to sign up for one or several shifts, click here (https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080848A4A62EA6FF2-49545396-2024).
