It seems as if the month of February flew by. It is hard to believe that March is here.
Purple Sage received awesome news this past month. In honor of National School Breakfast Week, Purple Sage was selected to represent the Houston Area by Dairy Max and Fuel Up to Play 60 through the Houston Texans to showcase our breakfast program. Dairy Max, along with a Houston Texan, will be visiting our campus on Thursday, March 8th. This is going to a fantastic opportunity for our students. We are all so very excited! None of this would be possible without your continued support of our breakfast program.
We are continuing with our afterschool student enrichment programs for 3rd-5th grades. We will be adjusting some of our groups based on recent or upcoming district assessments. If you ever have questions or concerns about your child’s progress, please contact his/her teacher(s).
This Thursday, March 8th, our first grade students will be performing at the PTA meeting that will start at 5:00 pm. Afterwards, we will be hosting our first Family Academic Night. The teachers have planned incredible reading, math and science activities for the students and parents to make and use at home. PTA will also have a concession stand open. You can come have dinner and spend time with your children as we all work towards academic success for all students.
Congratulations to all of our Multimedia Festival Winners. The student’s technology projects were fantastic! Job well done to our Prose and Poetry representatives at the GPISD contest. We are proud of you, David and Amarie!
Thank you to all of you who helped make our Dr. Seuss week a success. It was a lot of fun!
Lastly, we would just like to say thank you for all your continued support. With any new administration or new school year, it brings about changes. We greatly appreciate your understanding and for all you do to help make PSE the BEST!
