“Dolphins Making a Big Splash”
- Kuddos to our students and families who helped make the PGES Talent show a huge success. We really appreciate you making time on a Friday night to enjoy and evening with us as we showcased some of Bullitt County’s Top Talent. It was such a treat to see the many talents of our students. PGE raised $1,148.84 that will help us provide supplies/materials for our book room. The top 3 “acts” who raised the most money were:
- 1st Place: Lark Hammock and Lexi Walker
- 2nd Place: Trinity Smith
- 3rd Place: Emma Egan
- The following Dolphins’ names were drawn in this Friday’s Splash Ticket Drawing. Congratulations and a big Thank You for following our Splash Expectations daily!!!
- Emily Arbaugh

Important Reminders
- K-Prep ASSESSMENT (grades 3-5): It’s so important to have students receive plenty of rest and to eat well-balanced meals during testing times. Please have students present and on-time during testing dates. If your child is absent for a test, make-ups will be given May 14-17, meaning your child may miss Field Day Events. Please have all cell phones turned off while in the building, during testing weeks.
- Morning Car Riders: Please remember students must be in the building by 9:00 am. If you arrive after that time, parents/caretakers must come through the front entrance to sign your child in.
PGES Happenings
- Class Basketball Games: Our final around of Class Basketball Games will be Monday, May 7. So far, we’ve seen lots of skilled basketball players. We would love to see you come out and support our young basketball players and support Relay For Life Cancer Research.
- Staff Appreciation Week: Next week is Teacher/Staff Appreciation week. PGES students are so very blessed to have the greatest staff helping them grow/learn each day. The PTO has planned special surprise for our staff as a token of our appreciation for all they do. Please feel free to send a note, gift or other token of thanks to the adults in our school that make a difference to your child.
Help Needed
- 2012-2013 PTO Programs/Activities: During our next PTO meeting we hope to discuss the needs of our parents and staff. However, we need your input/insights about what you would like to see from our PTO. Our goal is to provide quality programs and opportunities to our students, families, faculty and staff to enrich the PGES Dolphin experience. To better serve our students, families and teachers, we welcome your input and suggestions. We would greatly appreciate you taking the time to complete a brief survey. Your responses will help guide the things we do for students and staff next year. The link below will take you to the survey. Thanks so much for your insight!
