We’d like to give special shoutouts to anyone who helped organize the event or volunteered their time and talents. Thank you to the 20+ community organizations that participated, as well as Mr. Scribbles, Kevin Raymond, Ricky the Entertainer, the Charcoal Corral, Perry Fire Department, Kelly’s Garage, Andy Warriner, Perry Public Library, Parkview Farms, Air Raising Events, Stacy Bell, Natalia Muolo, Maya Muolo, Yummies, and Diner on the Run. We appreciate all who supported this event!

We're pretty certain that our friends in Ms. Stead's class would've stayed in the pool all day if given the chance. Can you blame them?! This group was having a blast with Coach Allen and Coach VonGunden this morning while building confidence in the pool. #PrideInTheHive

Sweetie the Chicken was back at PES this morning, this time, visiting our kindergarten classrooms! Stephanie Czerniak, Ag in the Classroom teacher, dropped off eggs and incubators to Mrs. Ferro's, Mrs. Greenaker's, and Ms. Dominesey's classrooms last week in hopes to produce baby chicks.

Mrs. Adolf, elementary art teacher, headed to Louisville, Kentucky, for a couple days last week to attend the National Art Educators Association’s annual convention. She was joined by thousands of visual arts, design, and media arts educators who share her passion of supporting students’ creative exploration. She was busy discussing new art media with vendors, attending workshops for new classroom ideas, and listening to lectures from working artists, educators, and art activists. Our students will undoubtedly benefit from all the knowledge she brings back to PES! #PrideInTheHive
