It’s hot days like today that we think back when our 3rd graders ran their annual lemonade stands. Even our Early Childhood and Head Start students got to join in on the fun!
At Pettigrew, we are committed to continuously learning and growing so we can provide the highest quality instruction for our students. Every new idea, strategy, and collaboration helps us move closer to our shared goal: ensuring that every Pettigrew student becomes a confident, proficient reader.
Here is another throwback from last month....Students in Room 103 earned a special “Glow Day!” The classroom was glowing with excitement as students wrote glowing stories, played glowing games, and enjoyed a day full of fun while “glowing” up together! What a bright way to celebrate their hard work and accomplishments!
We are missing our students but hoping they are having fun this summer! Here is K04 students having a fun-filled day of learning back in May! Students enjoyed reading with flashlights, solving camping-themed math problems, and painting creative camping pictures. It was a day packed with fun, learning, and imagination!
Families are welcome to browse the lost and found anytime before the last day of school. It is located inside the main lobby.
Pettigrew Field Day is this Friday! The schedule is listed below on this poster. Parents/Guardians are invited to spectate but must do so from the side walk around the parameter of the park. No spectators are allowed on the playground. Thank you to Mr. Mohr and Mr. Tuschen for putting together this year's Field Day!
Our third graders have been working very hard to prepare for their lemonade stand sales adventure and are excited to share their hard work with our Pettigrew families.
This year, the third grade class has chosen to donate their proceeds to the Ilona Kruse family to assist with her medical journey. 💜
Parents are invited to attend the lemonade stands to purchase lemonade and support this meaningful cause. Visitors must check in at the office to get a visitor sticker, before going onto the playground. Please bring your driver’s license if you have never signed into our iPad Security System.
From early mornings to late afternoons, evenings and even some weekends, they are the steady compass guiding our students, staff, and families. Whether it’s greeting students with a smile, supporting teachers, or making tough decisions with care and thoughtfulness, their leadership shapes the culture of our entire school.
Thank you Mr. Wagner and Mrs. Walden, for being a champion for kids, a supporter of staff, and leaders who show up every single day with dedication and heart. Your impact reaches far beyond the walls of our building, and we are so grateful for all you do! Happy Principal’s Day!
