This year, PRES is teaming up with George Family Orthodontics for an exciting Reading Rocks contest! All the contest details are outlined in the attachements. This event will run throughout January. Students will be given tally sheets in class (see attached PDF) starting January 2nd and are expected to return them by Wednesday, January 31st. The winners will be announced in February. The tally sheet can also be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1D1p0bMk8DXisK8IeJLa7QvGTVIruViaE/view?usp=sharing
REMINDER: Tomorrow (12/22/23) is a District Wide Early Release Day. Lunches will not be served. There is no PM preschool and PRES students will be dismissed at 12:20pm.
Due to numerous road closures in our towns, I have concerns about elementary buses running after sundown. Therefore, we will have the following dismissals: High School at 1pm; Middle Schools at 2pm; Elementary Schools at 3pm. Champions will remain open. Families should be aware that delays are inevitable. A decision on after-school activities is forthcoming.
Thank you for your understanding of this decision made in the name of safety.

Superintendent

This morning, we had our first "banking day" with our community partners, Bristol County Savings Bank. A number of students in grades three and four opened their very first savings accounts, and made account deposits. Students participating in BCSB's Savings Makes Sense program will also receive a $5.00 deposit from the bank when they open their account. We are excited to see our students gaining financial literacy skills through this valuable program, and look forward to our next visit on October 19th.
We had a successful and fun first day at PRES. Lots of smiles despite the heat and humidity! #WeAreDR
The PTSA play date was a HUGE success! Over 300 PRES students and their families showed up to play, socialize, and enjoy a cold treat from Palagi's! Even our Falcon flew down from the nest to visit. It was a blast! #WeAreDR
We hope you can join us for New Student Orientation!
This afternoon, Mrs. Kefor volunteered at the COA serving lunch. Towards the end, a few PRES and BMS students stopped in to check out Gert's Cafe. They shared a delicious cupcake, and they met a Mr. Solas, Selectman, who coached the boys in giving a solid handshake! Together, #WeAreDR! 💛💚
