"We Believe We Can Change the World"

Yes, We Can!

“It's not difficult

to do challenging things when
your helpers are there."

A haiku is traditionally a Japanese poem

 consisting of three short lines that do not rhyme.

Let us think of ourselves as a tribe!

My growth and success is because

of just how much others grow

and experience success.

After all, teamwork can be a lot of fun.

"We Believe We Can Change the World"

Be the "I" in KIND

"I grabbed some coffee in the lounge and

went back to the hall, toward my classroom.

Here came Mrs. Powell's

kindergarten class, heading to lunch.

He was the "I" in KIND.

Stopping in front of me he said, 

"Excuse me - go on ahead." The entire

class paused to let me walk past them! 

"No act of kindness,
no matter how small, is ever wasted."  

~Aesop

Find your badge and head to the cafeteria.

Say, "Good morning" to your

So come along my friend,

the adventures we'll share together.

Preschool Days

Every day in PreK is a learning adventure,

with Parkside's special little boys and girls.

Even more wonderful....is that 

we're blessed with some great volunteers.

Their support is essential for 

each and every child in our midst.

Creativity is always encouraged!

It's important that children

feel confident when exploring new talents.

We want them to seek out as many

new experiences as possible!  

The influence of caring adults?

#Priceless

Yes, there's a fair amount of giggling each day.

The world needs more love!

"We Believe We Can Change the World"

It's a Fact

Kobe Bryant was quoted as saying: 
"Why do you think I'm 

I'm the best player in the world? 
Because I never got bored with the basics."  

Need we say more about the
energy & promise of our students....

alongside their beloved families?

Our pupils are quite playful!

They encourage one another.

They inspire us with their determination.

Their creative talents mean everything!

What about "the basics?

Our goal to make school meaningful,
learning fun, and helping kids feel
safe is always essential at Parkside. 

We share in the
things that matter the
most to youth, and to their families.

Stay Safe and Warm!

Will You?

Ah, the cafeteria at around 11:30 A.M.  

It's time for "diving into"

 the many goodies that await you,
whether they are on a tray or in a lunchbox.

"I'll remember this
moment today @ school, forever!"

A Real "Snow Day" in Kindergarten!

It's not every day that 

Mrs. Hulen's students can make snow.

Mixing, mixing....a little "elbow grease!"

Expert help from our 3rd grade friends.

So much fun, Mrs. Whewell's 

class made the day special in every way.
