A Great Place to Learn and Grow!

#Teamvessels

Dear #Teamvessels,

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I want to express my deepest gratitude to our incredible school community.

I am thankful for the unwavering commitment of our dedicated teachers and staff, who consistently go above and beyond to create a nurturing and enriching learning environment for our students.

To our students, thank you for the curiosity, creativity, and enthusiasm you bring to our classrooms daily.

To the parents and guardians, your support is invaluable. Your partnership in your child's education fosters a positive and thriving school community.

This Thanksgiving, let us cherish the moments of togetherness, warmth, and gratitude. May the spirit of gratitude extend beyond the holiday season and permeate our daily lives, fostering a culture of appreciation and kindness.

I wish you and your loved ones a Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. May this holiday season remind us of the blessings that surround us, big and small.

Have a great week! We look forward to seeing you back at Vessels on Monday, November 27!

The Vessels Turkey Trot

The Vessels PTA's annual Turkey Trot is Tuesday, November 28, and we look forward to our best event yet! Our goal this year is $50,000, and with your help, we can fund field trips, assemblies, supplies, STEM activities, supplementary curriculum, playground equipment, and many more extras that make Vessels a great place to learn and grow. You can help by sending the QR code to friends and family who want to help us achieve our goal this year! Please see the attached flyers for instructions, incentives, prizes, and events that will make the next few weeks (and months) memorable for our kids and community! There will be some surprises along the way, so please stay tuned!

We Need You!

We are looking for parents who would love to volunteer on campus for various PBIS events in December!
