Hello Pinewood Families, The school day begins at 7:30 am, which means students should be at their seat, starting their academic day at that time. Any student that is not in their classroom at 7:30 am is marked absent until they arrive in the classroom, at which time they are marked tardy. If your child is arriving to school at or after 7:30 am, please make sure they have had something to eat. Breakfast at PWE is free and is served between 7:00-7:30 am. This means your child is in the cafeteria, in the breakfast line before 7:30 am. Your child’s schedule is purposefully designed to account for every minute of instruction. If students arrive after 7:30 am, they will be missing critical content being taught or additional support being offered. We appreciate your cooperation in speaking with your child about the importance of being responsible and accountable for their learning success.

🍎 OBSERVING OUTSTANDING INSTRUCTION🍎 Superintendent Dr. John D. Millay participated in a learning walk at Pinewood Elementary School today. "Learning walks are one of many tools we use to learn about the great things happening at each of our schools," Dr. Millay shared. "In addition to observation and engagement, it allows our leadership team to learn about additional ways we can offer support." In Ms. Lacey's class, students benefit from using technology to provide large visuals as they learn strategies and develop their writing skills. #ALLINMartin👊 #PublicSchoolProud

Hello Pinewood Family, We had a very successful Conference Night this past week. Thank you to our teachers and staff for preparing for these important conversations and thank you to our families for making education a priority. Monday and Tuesday of this week, the walker bridge is being closed for repair. There will be additional police to assist during arrival and dismissal. We ask that you remind your children that toys and playing cards should not be brought to school. This becomes especially distracting during dismissal. Mrs. Coder, our amazing music teacher, will be holding auditions on November 28th and 29th for the Performing Panthers. This year, auditions and participation is open to students in grades 1-5. Please ask your teacher for a packet if you are interested. This coming week may be short, but certainly one of the most important weeks of the month, as we give thanks and reflect on the goodness and love that surrounds each and every one of us. We, at PWE, are blessed to be part of your lives. Here are this week’s events: 11/21 – Fall Retake Pictures 11/22 – Boy Scouts Meeting Coming shortly after this holiday break is the mid-year assessments for all students, K-5, in Reading, Math and Science. Hola familia Pinewood, Tuvimos una noche de conferencias muy exitosa la semana pasada. Gracias a nuestros maestros y personal por prepararse para estas importantes conversaciones y gracias a nuestras familias por hacer de la educación una prioridad. El lunes y martes de esta semana, el puente peatonal estará cerrado por reparaciones. Habrá policía adicional para ayudar durante la llegada y la salida. Le pedimos que le recuerde a sus hijos que no deben traer juguetes o tarjetas de juego a la escuela. Esto se vuelve especialmente molesto durante el despido. La Sra. Coder, nuestra increíble maestra de música, realizará audiciones el 28 y 29 de noviembre para Performing Panthers. Este año, las audiciones y la participación están abiertas a estudiantes en los grados 1-5. Por favor, pídale a su maestro un paquete si está interesado. Esta próxima semana puede ser corta, pero sin duda una de las semanas más importantes del mes, ya que damos gracias y reflexionamos sobre la bondad y el amor que nos rodea a todos y cada uno de nosotros. Nosotros, en PWE, tenemos la bendición de ser parte de sus vidas. Estos son los eventos de esta semana: 21/11 – Fotos de retomar otoño 22/11 – Reunión de Boy Scouts Poco después de estas vacaciones, llegarán las evaluaciones de mitad de año para todos los estudiantes, K-5, en Lectura, Matemáticas y Ciencias..
