We are so excited to be back! Welcome Back everyone to the Second Semester!
Today our students learned what their prize will be for December if they reach their Citizen Characteristics goals! This fall the students have been working towards positive citizenship characteristics: Honesty, Respectful, Gratitude, and Cooperative. We had a special visitor, Radar, to help us announce that if students reach their goal by December 20th they will be attending a Quad City Storm Hockey Game! To say the excitement was electric would be an understatement! Students have until December 20th to reach their honesty goal!
Holiday Program was a success! Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make this possible for our students! The students and Mr. Barrette put on a fabulous show!
Reminder it's Holiday Program week!
Congratulations to our cooperative team members! Miss Johnson and Jazmyn Bender were our November Student/Staff members of the month!
Alllllllllllll aboard The Polar Express!
Pre-K families save the date for our December Family Night!
A big thank you to Ms. Emma Stull with Illinois Extension Programming for coming to PES Thursday night for PreK Family Night and helping us learn about nutrition! PreSchoolers listened to a storybook, crafted, and talked about yummy and healthy foods!
Today for science Mrs. DeCrane took 3rd grade outside to experience the magic of the Ginkgo tree. An amazing detail about the Ginkgo Tree is that it loses all of its leaves in a day or less. The kids were very happy to get to see it happen and experience it!
Please take some time to consider this amazing opportunity through the 4-H Extension Office!
Our 3rd graders got to enjoy some time with the residents at Winning Wheels on Halloween. The students got to visit Winning Wheels and trick-or-treat with the residents. We are so thankful that this tradition is coming back!
You might have noticed that our Flag looks a little different at PES! Thank you to Mrs. Barton's Kindergarten class for changing out our Flag just in time for Veteran's Day. The Kindergarten students learned about the history of the Flag, what each part of the Flag represents, and how to properly fold the Flag.
Come help us honor our Veterans at 10am on Monday at PES!
Congratulations to Mrs. Schillaci and Jonny Krafft for showing our September characteristic of the month: COOPERATIVE. Each was recognized by their peers for their outstanding Cooperation in helping making our school the best it can be!

Last Thursday was a spook-tacular time at the PreK Family Halloween Night! Thank you to all of the families who attended! Students came dressed in their costumes ready to party! They crafted, decorated pumpkins, created yummy snacks, and enjoyed getting their faces painted!
