Good evening PFE Families, Have you completed the volunteer information for the 24-25 school year? This includes classroom parties or activities, field trips or any other activities in the building. We have upcoming events that will require everyone in attendance to be an approved volunteer. Click the link below to become an approved volunteer. Being an approved volunteer is required to be on school campus, but does not require you to volunteer. https://securevolunteer.com/Pulaski-County-Special-School-District/home

Good evening PFE families, It's been a great second day. Please remember that school zones are cell phone free. This includes when sitting in the arrival or dismissal car line waiting to drop off or pick up your student. During dismissal, all car riders should load into the car from the passenger side of the vehicle. If you need to buckle a car seat, please pull around the loop and park in a parking spot. This will help the car line move quickly. We are looking forward to a fantastic third day.

We have had a SWARMtastic first day of school! Please take a moment to review the dress code with your students. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cen-xQhg7p-iuJiJXw8YD9QwYcf5i8VA/view?usp=sharing Shop the PFE Back-To-School Spirit Wear Sale!
