We celebrated the ribbon cutting of our brand-new addition at Paddock Road Elementary!!! It was so special to see our students, staff, and families come together to celebrate and enjoy our beautiful new gym. 🐼

A special thank you to the Battershell family for their incredible generosity & for donating our new climbing wall! Their support helps make this space even more special for our Pandas. We are so excited for all the memories, learning, and fun that will happen in our new gym! ♥️🧗

During our Panda Pride Assembly, representatives from every classroom in Grades 1–6 came together to create a class motto and promise for the 2026–2027 school year! 🐼💙

We chained them all together and will have them on display throughout the year as a reminder of the promises we made to help make Paddock Road the best it can be!! Together, we are making Paddock Road a place where everyone can learn, grow, and show their Panda Pride! 🐼✨

Pandas, we missed you!

While you were enjoying your summer, our teachers and staff were hard at work collaborating on all things Paddock Road, transforming classrooms, and putting the finishing touches on everything to make this school year the best one yet! (Don't worry—they found time to relax and recharge, too! 😉)

We hope you've had an amazing summer and enjoy these last few days of break. We can't wait to welcome you back for another incredible year of learning, laughter, and memories.

See you soon, Pandas! 📚✨🐼
