We are organizing a casual dress week to support one of our students, Brayden in Mrs. Ballance's class, who recently lost his father in a tragic work accident. This is a small way we can come together as a school community to show care and compassion during an incredibly difficult time.
Staff are invited to participate in a casual week for a donation of $15. All proceeds will go directly to support the student and his family. If you would like to participate, you can either pay Ms. Tapman or use Venmo, @PES_21851.
Thank you for helping us wrap this student in love and support.
