#Engage, Energize, & Educate

June 3rd - June 7th

Dear PVE Families,

On Monday evening 4th grade teacher Mrs. LaChapelle was recognized at the School Committee meeting on her upcoming retirement. Mrs. LaChapelle has touched the lives of countless students, colleagues, and parents. Mrs. LaChapelle has been an integral part of the Smithfield School District for 36 years!  Congratulations on her upcoming retirement! Our doors will always be open for her to come back and visit or work as a substitute teacher!

Field Day was a HUGE success! A HUGE thank you to Mr. Marino and Mrs. Marques-Jordan, our fifth graders, staff, secretaries, substitute teachers,  and our countless volunteers.

We have an extensive Lost & Found in the PVES hallway that will be donated on the last day of school.  There is also jewelry of all types in the office along with a set of house keys. Please encourage your child to visit our Lost & Found!

A Message from Mrs. Traverse

Please be sure to apply sunscreen prior to sending your child to school on days where the sun index is going to be high.  A student in grades K-5 may bring sunscreen to school ONLY with a note from a parent, and school personnel are not responsible for reapplication of sunscreen.
