Dear PAS Families,
Thank you to everyone who came out on Tuesday and Wednesday night. If you missed the evening opportunity to learn more about our school's academic performance and initiatives for this year, please see the Back to School Night slidedeck.
Based on parent feedback, we have reduced the number of parent meetings this year. Please see this list of meetings for the year for the Home and School Association, Equity Circle, School Advisory Council and Coffee With The Principal.
PSSA scores are coming home with students in grades 4-8 tomorrow as well as a QR code to report absences that you can post on your refrigerator. The form is also in the resource section below
Students who are interested in the All City Elementary and Middle School Choir Festival auditions should click on this information letter for more information and to sign up. The deadline for sign-ups is Tuesday, September 16, 2025.
On Monday, we kick off Latine/Heritage Month. We are excited to celebrate and honor the history, culture and influence of current and past generations from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. If you or someone you know would like to share your culture with our community, we are grateful for the experience to learn with you. Click here to share with us.
Tomorrow, we also kick off our Monday, 8:40am weekly chat and chews with Pulak Ahmed, SDP Bengali Bilingual Counseling Assistant in the lunchroom. BCAs offer interpretation and translation services to multilingual families. They organize and/or facilitate family training and workshops that help families become aware, knowledgeable, and confident in supporting their child’s academic experience.
Sincerely,
Principal Overton
