PES is currently celebrating Literacy Week and, as part of the celebration, each grade level is watching the movie “The Wild Robot” in the auditorium. The movie is based on the book of the same name by Peter Brown, which was read by all elementary students for the “One Book, One School” initiative. Every student had the opportunity to bring one adult to view the movie with them. A huge thank you to Busy Bees for providing the popcorn that our movie-goers are enjoying! #PrideInTheHive
The Stand Up Club and Ms. Smith are celebrating National Say Something Week with fun festivities that celebrate the importance of trusted adults and upstanders in our community! The Say Something initiative was started by Sandy Hook Promise as a way to prevent school violence. #PrideInTheHive

They say a picture is worth a thousand words but it can also bring back a flood of memories. If this doesn't make you nostalgic about your elementary PE days, we're not sure what will! #PrideInTheHive
Wrestlers Holden Kelly and Noah Leitten were celebrated with their own "Walk of Champions" at the HS this morning. They are competing this weekend at the NYSPHSAA Wrestling Championships in Albany. We wish them the best of luck!!! #PrideInTheHive
Our Section V Indoor Track and Field champions, Avery Duppengiesser, Briella Ohlson, Mason Evans, and Abygail Herring, will be representing PCS at the state qualifiers tomorrow! The student-athletes were celebrated at the ES/JH this morning with a "Walk of Champions." We have to give a shoutout to Mrs. Jaques' students for making them feel extra special with this sign. Good luck!!!!
"Just have fun with it." That was Mrs. Emerson's advice as she showed sophomore Hannah Thomas how to paint mountains using a palette knife for the first time. Drawing and Painting students have learned several new techniques as they set out to create landscape compositions. #PrideInTheHive
Today was pretty major at PES....because we're 100 days smarter!!! Our youngest learners marked this milestone with fun festivities (maybe including some sugar) and reflecting on all the progress they've made over these last many months. #PrideInTheHive
We caught the cast and crew of "The Wizard of Oz" hard at work on Saturday. The audience gets to see the perfectly crafted production at showtime, but so much work goes on behind the scenes in the months prior to Opening Night. We hope you're as excited as we are to see all that hard work come to fruition for this group!

Jamie Hudson and Kelly Nickerson from the Wyoming County Youth Bureau are working with 7th graders over the next eight weeks on the program LOVE146: Not a Number. The prevention curriculum is designed to teach youth how to protect themselves from human trafficking and exploitation through information, critical thinking, and skill development. With technology making the world a much smaller place, it’s vital to educate children to recognize risk factors and prevent possible dangerous situations. #PrideInTheHive
On Friday, students from Perry, Warsaw, Letchworth, Attica, and Wyoming attended the annual 8th Grade Career Day, held at Warsaw Middle/High School this year. The event, organized by the Wyoming County Business Education Council and its sponsors, connected students with professionals in healthcare, technology, sales and marketing, law enforcement, and more. #PrideInTheHive
Next time you stop in to Old Souls Bakery on North Main Street, check out the displayed artwork that was created by Ms. Hankey's grades 4-8 art students. We love this collaboration! #PrideInTheHive
The main hallway of the ES/JH smells incredible right now and its all because of the hard work of this awesome group! Ms. Reding and Mrs. Warriner's students are expanding their Coffee Cart offerings and including meal deals for staff members to purchase. Along with sweet treats and hot beverages, today's offerings include two types of chili, cornbread, and homemade rolls. Yummy! #PrideInTheHive
Today, as they've done every February 5 since 2020, elementary students spent the entire day playing. They were excited to walk through our doors this morning carrying their favorite board games, card games, crafts, toys, art supplies – anything that wasn’t electronic.
You see, Global School Day of Play isn’t about our students spending an entire day not learning. Research shows that play provides children with social-emotional learning, and promotes cognitive and physical development. Yes, students spent the day having fun, but they also spent it interacting with their peers, using their imaginations, learning how to deal with conflict, compromising, communicating efficiently, and much more. It was an incredible day to be at PES!

Ms. Reding and Mrs. Warriner's students are hard at work preparing menu options for this week's coffee cart. Along with their normal sweet treats and beverages, they are also preparing white chicken chili and regular chili, as well as homemade rolls and cornbread, for staff at the ES/JH to purchase. We have a feeling this crew will be very busy filling orders on Thursday! #PrideInTheHive
