We need weekly volunteers to help in the lunchroom and/or outside at recess. Pick a day (or two or three) a week to come and help our students get their bodies filled with food and get their wiggles out on the playground. What a great way to get connected with the amazing students at PW. Please contact Kimberly Buggs at [email protected]
Got lunch?
STORTI Time.... a note from your principal
Happy New Year!!!I hope you enjoyed time with your family over the holidays. It was great to see the students smiling faces on Monday.
End of 2015 highlights: * The Band and Orchestra Concerts. I was very proud of our students. They put in so much work to prepare and it completely showed during the concerts. Well Done! *My Monthly lunch with the birthday kids. I really enjoy this deeper connecting time with them- getting to know them outside the classroom.
Looking forward to 2016 Highlights.

Come join us for a 4 week group, where you will watch the DVD-based curriculum and discuss it with other parents and a representative from "Natalis"- Anna Krull, MA, LPCC, LMFT, Doctoral Student
