A special thank you to Christina Geist who read her NY Times best selling book "Buddy's New Buddy" to our Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade classes on Friday. The students really enjoyed hearing her story about being yourself and making new friends. The PTO also gifted all of our K-2 teachers with an autographed copy of her book for their classroom! It was a great day and the students loved having her at PGS for such a special visit!

A huge thank you goes out to Allison Yaffee for coordinating Christina's visit.

BOOKS NEEDED!

PGS installed and registered a Little Free Library last spring. It provides the community with an opportunity to share and receive free books. It’s been well received and used by PGS students and families. In order to keep our Little Free Library operating it needs more books to share. If your family or child enjoys getting books from the Little Free Library or you're just clearing out 

old books please consider sharing them with the PGS Little Free Library. If you have any questions please contact Renee Isaac at risaacster@gmail.com. 

Thank you for supporting the PGS Little Free Library.


In the month of March the Community Council is collecting items in support of two animal  rescues.
