Hello PV Families,
We had a wonderful week filled with lots of learning and fun! We wrapped up our Dress-Up Week today with PJ Day in support of our CCMC fundraising efforts for kids with cancer. Thank you for helping us raise money for such an important cause.
Keep those PJs on and join us tonight at 6:00 PM in the PV gym for Movie Night!
Please remember that this is NOT a drop-off event—parents must remain with their children for the entire event. Doors open at 6:00 PM. Come cozy and comfortable for a fun evening together!
We also have another exciting celebration to share—the Sztachera family, our Ride to School in a Fire Truck raffle winners, enjoyed their special reward last Friday! The joy and excitement on their faces were priceless. A huge thank-you to Lindsay Ruszczyk (PTO), Deputy Chief Scott Fine and Fire Chief Kevin Cooney from the South Windsor Fire Department for making this memorable experience possible.
Our Preschool students had a blast welcoming their families into the classroom on Thursday to build Gingerbread Houses. Their creativity was on full display—see the beautiful photos below!
Holiday Fair – Friday, December 19th
Our annual Holiday Fair gives K–5 students the opportunity to purchase affordable gifts for their families. A shopping list will be sent home to help students plan. The event is cash only, and each class will shop during assigned times. A PTO table will also be available for students who need support, using “Panther Payment” to select gifts for loved ones.
We are still looking for volunteers—please visit the PTOBoard sign-up if you’d like to help!
Snow is here!
REMINDER: Afterschool sign up was sent out earlier this week. The forms close on Monday Dec 15th at 5pm.
A friendly reminder to ensure students come to school dressed properly for outdoor recess. Only students with snow gear will be allowed to play in the snow for safety reasons.
Also, I have attached our District Lice Policy for your information.
Girls on the Run
Our GOTR team ran their final race last weekend at the West Hartford HMF Blue Back Mitten Run. The students, coaches, and families had an amazing time, and our runners completed their season in style! We are so proud of their perseverance and resilience.
