December Notices

Child Sponsorship

The students at PCS have chosen to sponsor a child through World Vision. We started this project in April 2016. It is an on going project including a commitment each month of $39.00.

Our child’s name is Kalpana and she is 8 years old. She lives with her family, which consists of her parents, 2 brothers and 2 sisters in Dungarpur, India.

Sponsorship helps provide some of the following:

· Education: classrooms, school supplies, & more

· Economic Development: Helping families access business training to build a brighter future.

· Health Care: access to improved health care & disease prevention

You as a parent can participate by encouraging your child to donate a few dollars each month.

Bus Notice – Winter Apparel

For the safety and comfort of all students, it is advised students have appropriate winter apparel (winter coats, hand, head and foot wear) while riding the bus. Unknown circumstances and delays may arise at any time and it is important students are dressed appropriately for winter weather.

In order to make our bake sale a success, we are asking families to please bring a baked good item (one dozen per family). Please bring your item by 6:30pm on the night of the concert. If more convenient, you can drop it off the day before (if it does not require refrigeration). Remember to only bring nut free items.
