#Engage, Energize, & Educate
September 1st, 2024
Dear Families,
Mrs. Dohoney and I were very excited to welcome 478 of our students back to school on Tuesday, August 27th. We were so impressed on how well all students adjusted back to the school routine. Thank you!
We are pleased to announce that Miss Samantha McCracken was hired on August 28th as our kindergarten teacher. Welcome to PVE!
On Tuesday, September 3rd we will welcome 81 incoming kindergarteners from 9:15-9:30 am on the back playground! Additionally, we have ALL of our fifth graders lining up the k/1 hallway to high-five and welcome our newest PANDAS! Mrs. Dohoney and I will also distribute parking and walker passes to any families that still need them.

Changing Your Child’s Dismissal
It is imperative that you notify the classroom teacher and secretary before noon if you are changing your child’s dismissal for the day. Any email changes after 12:00 pm may not be seen by the classroom teacher or the secretary. Therefore, if you need to make a change after 12:00 pm, please contact the office at 949-2058 to ensure your dismissal change was received.

Open House
Our PVE Open House is being held on Thursday, September 12th from 5:00pm to 7:00pm. This is a time to visit classrooms and itinerants. Since it is not an evening for parent conferences, please make a separate appointment with your child’s teacher at another time to discuss any concerns you may have.
Please be sure to visit the cafeteria as Chef Will Fritz and his staff from Chartwells will provide sample Denver Bowls.
If you are interested in being a PVE volunteer this year , please be sure to plan on attending my volunteer training at 4:45pm in the cafeteria. You may enter through door 2.
Please note you must also have a current BCI.
Summer Work
Please be sure that all summer work packets are brought back to school before Friday, September 6th.
Car Drop-Offs
Please be sure to pull completely around the circle when dropping off your child. This helps to alleviate the back up on Pleasant View Avenue. As a courtesy to other families, if you or a grandparent is getting out of the car and walking your child to door 1 or to the sidewalk, we suggest you park in the chevron.Thank you for your cooperation.
Car Pick-Ups
In order to alleviate the back up on Pleasant View Avenue, please pull all the way around the circle to the stop sign. We will ensure that your child is walked to your vehicle safely! Thank you for your cooperation.
Weekly Flyers
Lost & Found
With such a large school, you can only imagine how many items accumulate on our Lost & Found tables! We highly encourage all families to label their child’s water bottle, lunchbox, and jackets, etc.
