A fun day was had! These kiddos scratched off "Dodgeball with admin" and cashed it in today!





Congratulations to our newest 1st grade and Kindergarten Math Masters! 🎉




The chicks have arrived!
3rd grade students will have the opportunity to adopt an Easter Chick! They will fill out an application and then use that information to create a persuasive essay that details why they would make an 'egg'cellent caregiver for a baby chick!
Writing is FUN!


Congratulations to our Math 24 representatives and to those that placed! We were well represented!

Newest member of the Sight Word Tribe!

Mrs. Beech's 6th grade science class dived deep into the states of matter and freezing points!







Big things are happening at Peebles Elementary! We want to give a massive shout-out to The GRIT Project for being our very first partner to speak with our 6th grade Mission Middle School class.
A huge thank you to Amy Queen, Matheau Reno, and Lisa Scott for sparking such incredible energy and curiosity in our students.
Why We’re Excited:
At PES, we know the transition from elementary to Jr./Sr. High is a milestone moment. We’re committed to making it meaningful by:
• Starting Early: Giving 6th graders real-world career exposure before they even hit middle school.
• Classroom Connections: Bringing the workforce directly to our students.
• Community Partners: We’re just getting started! With Adams Rural Electric and Wallace-Thompson Funeral Homes already lined up, the future is looking bright for our kids.
This is only the beginning of the journey for our Mission Middle School class. Keep an eye out for more updates as we continue to explore new horizons!

Congratulations to our new 2nd-grade Math Master!

The results are in! Last week's attendance battle was fierce, but the following classes have moved on to the Final Four: Mrs. Roads, Mrs. Young, Mrs. Arnold, and Mrs. Davis.
Last week, one class won by less than a percentage point. Keep showing up, and let's see who advances to the finals.
