Walking past Mrs. Baker’s classroom this morning, all you could hear was joyous cheering coming from inside. What could possibly have her students so excited?!

PES is currently celebrating Literacy Week and, as part of the celebration, each grade level is watching the movie “The Wild Robot” in the auditorium. The movie is based on the book of the same name by Peter Brown, which was read by all elementary students for the “One Book, One School” initiative. Every student had the opportunity to bring one adult to view the movie with them. A huge thank you to Busy Bees for providing the popcorn that our movie-goers are enjoying! #PrideInTheHive
