This weeks Elementary eNews is available at the following link: https://5il.co/1hsil. Have a great week Pendragons! Go Big Red!
Dear Parents,
This is just a reminder that the school day starts 8:10 a.m. each day. Students are allowed to be at school by 7:30 a.m. if they are eating breakfast. The school grounds, including the playground, are supervised from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. only. Supervision and shelter from the elements are not provided for students arriving prior to 7:30 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. because our staff is not on duty at that time. Students on school grounds outside of the supervised hours (7:30 a.m to 4:00 p.m.) are doing so at their own risk. We ask that you do not drop your children off at school during these upsupervised hours. We care for your children greatly and want to ensure a safe, structured atmosphere while on school grounds. Thank you!

This link (https://bit.ly/3x8zoDm) is to a message provided to Wakefield Community Schools families. It helps further understand the reason for the "Lockout" at PPS. I wanted to share it in an effort to provide PPS families with as much information as possible.
Out of an abundance of caution, PPS entered into "Lockout" from about 2:20 pm to 2:30 pm today. A description of "Lockout" is attached. This precaution was taken based on communication with local law enforcement regarding linked article. https://bit.ly/3xbNIv1
