Dear PES Families, 
 
I hope everyone has had a restful break! As we enter the new year, I wanted to take a moment to send out a few reminders: 
 
French/Prep- We are welcoming Mr. Mizener who will be taking over for Mr. Russell for the month of January. 
 
Cell Phones- As per the Ministry of Education and PPM 128, there will be no use of student cell phones while at school. If a student has a phone, it is to be switched on silent and stored in their backpack. The school is not responsible for lost or damaged items. If a student needs to contact home for urgent matters, the office phone will be available. Please see the attachment below for further information. 
 
Pick up/Drop off- Prior to 8:40 am there is no adult supervision, students are not to be dropped off before then. Pick up is expected promptly at 3:10 pm. 

Concerns- If at any point you have a concern regarding the school, please  for information on who to contact. If your concern is related to the classroom, please start by reaching out to your child’s teacher. 
 
Indoor/Outdoor Shoes- We kindly ask that all students have indoor and outdoor shoes. This helps keep our school clean. 
 
Running Shoes- To participate in physical activity while at school, all students must have running shoes. Crocs, clogs, sandals, etc. are not permitted. 
 

Reporting Absences- If your child is going to be absent, please call the absence reporting line at 1-833-557-9420 or report through the School Messenger app. Please do not leave attendance messages on the office or principal voicemail as they may not be heard in a timely manner.
