Pennell Weekly Newsletter September 20th

Dr. Danielle Murray, Interim Principal

Weekly Updates!

What a successful first full week of school. I am truly loving getting to know the students of Pennell. I have had so many positive interactions with students and staff, it makes each and every day a great day!

Thank you all who attended our virtual Back to School Night, it was a success! I was impressed by all who joined our amazing teachers to hear about the upcoming school year.

Friday, September 24th is an early dismissal due to a teacher professional development. Students will be dismissed at 11:15 on Friday. If your child's pick up changes because of the early dismissal, please let your child's teacher know about the change.

The Scholastic Book Fair, sponsored by the PTO is this week. Please see the schedule below for your child's time.

If you need a refresher on how to access Schoology or Skyward, please click here. These sites, along with the district webpage, help you stay connected to our school and staff. If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher or myself.
