Kenyan artist, Albert Lizah, will be our featured artist during some of our February art lessons.  Our school has been gifted one of his original artworks.  I will show the students his painting during their lesson.  Here is a link to the website where you can find many incredible African artists. 

Here is the Book Bag Pick-Up Schedule for the rest of the year. Please contact me
at ktruman@pps.net with any questions. If the school district changes its social distancing requirements, we will revise accordingly. Thank you! Mrs. Truman

Dear PPS Community,

As we continue welcoming our students to hybrid in-person learning, today we want to share a new resource that is available to you. For this project, we ReImagine a Digital Experience – an experience that is easy to navigate, multilingual, user-friendly and welcoming for ALL.

Dear PPS Families,

We have been working hard to put the finishing touches on the safe return of students to our schools for hybrid learning, and are excited to see students in grades 6-8 starting next week! For families whose students will participate in hybrid instruction, we have included information and reminders to help you prepare for the first days of in-person learning this school year.
