Ms. Susan Phillips, Principal

Week of November 17, 2025

It is the week before Thanksgiving - it's so hard to believe! We have a full week of school this week and so much to do! This is a busy time of year!


The weather has turned colder. Please remind your students to dress in layers. A coat or heavy sweatshirt is needed for recess.


Car line - Reminder of the expectations. Most students are assigned busing, so we strongly encourage those who are able to ride the bus to school to do so. The car line has a specific pattern that needs to be followed. This is for safety reasons Currently, there are too many cars cutting the line which is dangerous and unfair to those following the rules. The car line moves best when students get themselves out of the car. Adults, please DO NOT get out of your car while in the car line for any reason. Thank you for your help with this.


Annual PTL sponsored Turkey Feather Sale is one more week.

We have already raised over the $200 to help families in need so far. The PTL is also collecting supermarket gift cards for families in need.

Technology Tools for Parents

From: PDSD Staff Vivienne Cameron


Group chats can be a fun way for kids to stay connected—but sometimes, someone might add a person who isn’t part of the group or school community. This can create safety and privacy concerns, especially if the new person starts asking questions or sharing links. Kids may not realize that adding “just one extra person” could mean sharing private information or photos with a stranger.

Families can remind children that group chats should only include people they personally know and trust. If someone adds a stranger, it’s okay to leave the chat or tell a trusted adult. Parents can also review chat settings together to see who can add new members. Action step: This week, talk with your child about what to do if a new or unknown person appears in a group chat—decide together on a simple family rule, such as: “If we don’t know them, we leave or tell an adult."
