Palm City Elementary School

A HUGE Wildcat THANK YOU to our September Volunteer of the Month — Anna Loflin! 🐾💙💛

If you’ve spent any time in the PCE Media Center, you’ve probably seen Anna hard at work behind the scenes. She is truly the backbone of the Media Center, always finding creative, innovative ways to make books exciting and keep our students engaged. 📚✨

One of our favorite things about Anna is the way she helps foster a genuine love of reading throughout our school. Whether she’s creating something new, helping students discover their next favorite book, or making the Media Center an even more welcoming place to learn and explore, she brings so much energy and heart to everything she does.

Anna, thank you for sharing your time, creativity, and passion with our Wildcats. We are SO grateful for everything you do to support our students and help make PCE such a special place! 💙

Please join us in giving our amazing September Volunteer of the Month a BIG round of applause! 🎉👏

🐾 Our Wildcats had a WILD time at the Environmental Studies Center! Our 4th graders explored the mangroves, learned all about the Indian River Lagoon, discovered local wildlife, searched for plankton under microscopes, and got hands-on at the touch tanks! 🌊🔬🦀 Thank you to our amazing teachers at ESC! Learning is always more fun when we can get outside and experience it firsthand! 💙🐾

🌟 Character Counts: Citizenship! 🌟

September at Palm City Elementary was all about learning what it means to be a good citizen! 💙

Our students showed Citizenship by making responsible choices, following school rules, helping others, respecting our school community, and doing their part to make Palm City Elementary a great place to learn and grow. 🐾✨

We are so proud of our students for showing that small acts of kindness, responsibility, and respect can make a BIG difference!

Keep shining, Palm City Wildcats! 💙🐾

🌿🪼 Learning in the Lagoon! 🌊🦐 Our third grade students had an incredible hands-on learning experience at the Environmental Studies Center! They explored the amazing world of our local lagoons and learned all about the native plants and wildlife that call this ecosystem home. They even had the opportunity to go seining! Getting right into the water to discover these creatures in their natural habitat! 🥽🌊 They were excited to find seahorses, jellyfish, shrimp, and so much more! 🐚🦐🪼

🥳Congratulations to our Teachers of the Month, Mrs. Oliveri and Mrs. Carbaugh! 🥳

Our third graders have been learning all about plot and theme through the classic tale of King Midas! Students created their very own plot diagrams on crowns, identifying the key parts of the story and demonstrating their understanding in a fun and creative way. 👑 They also brainstormed the themes and lessons they discovered throughout the story. We love seeing our students make connections, share their ideas, and bring their learning to life! ✨📖

Join PCE as we show our unity and kindness towards each other! Stay tuned for more updates about Character Counts! Week, too!

🥳Congratulations to our Teachers of the Month, Ms. Nissinoff and Mrs. Swindler! 🥳
