Progress South Elementary School

Today we celebrated National SRO Appreciation Day a few days early since Mrs. Misuraca was in the building. We also had our students vote on the Olympics during lunch. #PSEsoars 🦅

2nd graders worked together to highlight the accomplishments of important people in the Civil War era. They turned out great!

During today’s Early Release, our teachers spent the afternoon engaged in meaningful PLC professional development. Teams reflected on the four PLC questions and discussed how those guide their collaboration time to better support student learning. #PSEsoars 💙🦅

Dear PSE Families,

We are excited to share that Progress South Elementary has joined the Kids Heart Challenge Lifesavers League. This is a fun and meaningful opportunity for our students to learn about heart health, practice lifesaving skills, and help raise funds for the American Heart Association.

❤️ How to Participate

Families can join our school’s online team by:

Visiting our school page

Downloading the Kids Heart Challenge app

Scanning the QR code on the flyer sent home last Friday

All donations should be made online, and our donation deadline is February 27.

In addition to helping others, funds raised can help our school earn free PE equipment for students, along with other fun incentives. It is a great way to build healthy hearts while supporting our school community.

Thank you for supporting our students as they learn, lead, and make a difference.

First Grade is learning about animal habitats and adaptations. Today, Mrs. Carr's class got a hands on learning experience with the "blubber glove" which simulates how the blubber adaptation helps arctic animals stay warm. #PSEsoars

Students are always so excited to see new books join the shelves at PSE! Remember that the PSE PTO is hosting a book fair. Purchases provide the school with "scholastic dollars" that go into purchasing those new books for students to enjoy!
