We had a great first day at PWE! 🎉❤️

A few reminders to help our week go smoothly:

Our classes begin at 7:52. Let’s make the goal for our kids to be in the building by 7:50. ⏱️

Car pick up was about 15 min. slower than we want it. For the first day, it wasn’t too bad! Thank you so much for working with us to make that happen! 💪

If you have a car tag from last year, please have that hanging up for car pick up. Once you are loaded, flip it around. ✅

If you pick up in the front, the zig-zag line by the old football field will be double stacked. Two cars will move together through the line, just like in front of the school! 🚙

We really had the best day! We are so grateful for our students, our staff, and our families! It is going to be an amazing year! 😊

All students will be dropped off in the morning in front of the elementary.

ATTENTION ELEMENTARY PARENTS:
Student pick up is the same as last year!!

Buses will take the same route in front of the elementary school and out the middle drive.

You will pick up all of your students on the side with the oldest student. Example: If your oldest student is in 5th grade, but you have a 2nd grader as well, you will pick up both students on the 4th-6th grade side.

Is your OLDEST student in 3rd grade or Lower? Parents/Guardians picking up students in Kindergarten - 3rd grade will start at the gravel parking lot. Cars may pull through the road and stop at the gate until buses have left. Once buses have left, they may pull forward to the front of the school. Cars will exit out of the first drive and must turn right from there. We will load the length of the awning in two lines still.

Is your OLDEST student in 4th Grade through 6th Grade? There is a new road that begins by the old HS Gym/Pre-School area. From there, drive down that road and up to the back of the elementary school building. You will come up the back and turn to the left. Pull all the way to the end of the sidewalk and we will load from there. When loaded, you will pull out and turn to the right driving all the way back to Hwy 70. Traffic will be directed to turn left.
