Sunday Smile!

You may not have heard about some wonderful people from near and
far, who helped us "Stuff the Bus" before the school year started.

It was an amazing outpouring of support for our boys and girls.

A "shout out" to the folks at WALMART for a spot to gather donations. 

Shoppers enabled us to provide school supplies for Parkside children.

Teachers provided lists for different grade levels & specific needs.

It was grand to see familiar faces from the community.

(We can't stop at just 4 pictures)

It was a Sunday afternoon we'll never forget!

Young and old alike were willing to help.

Some donations came from folks we didn't even know.

Honoring children can enable their dreams to be within reach!

Passion & purpose go "hand-in-hand" for our staff and learners.

 A bit of fun has brought us to the end of the week.

Cheers to all; have a safe Labor Day holiday.

We spied students who are always ready to help.

Meanwhile, The Tooth Fairy slid something under her pillow. 

Friends sang "Happy Birthday" to this classmate at lunch.

 Our safe and friendly school is a family of leaders and
excitement as well as encouragement are all part of the fun!

Cheerleaders that inspire together - stay together.

The early part of our year is best - a new beginning.

It's the children that make Parkside important!

Thankfully, there's never a dull moment at school.

 Inspiring our customers with enthusiasm

and excitement about learning is no small thing.

What a way to start the morning!

Each day is a chance to make new acquaintances. 

Encouragement to set & meet goals is everything.

Leaders flex their muscles while helping at lunch.

 School days start & end with gathering alongside friends or helpers.

Thanks Mr. Williams...breakfast is served.

Your bestie, BFF, chum, comrade, or amigo- other words for friend!

A friend believes in you and are always willing to help.

When you feel challenged, turn to others for their input or guidance.

 The relationships we create are like diamonds! 

Leaders recognize the need to help others.

Greeting & collaborating with parents is so important.

Grateful are we for feeling pride in a "job well done."

Who doesn't feel "joy" is seeing someone who matters?

 

That's a Wrap

Games, the Essential Advantage

  #4for40

Hello!  Wednesday happens to be day three of our adventure.

Please share Parkside's blog with others so they'll "be in the know!"

We know games do enable success!

We're building understandings of "place value."

Games give us advantages for problem solving.

Thanks...we're going to get back to the games.

Hello Tuesday!

  #4for40

Thank you for joining us on day two of our story, while

enjoying pictures from the first forty days of the school year.

It's good to know we have curious kids.

This baker was busy mixing dough for cookies.

Did you know PreK authors are among us?

Tuesday, the train conductor was very busy!

Welcome to Parkside!

 #4for40

Join us at right here to celebrate a new year

with four pictures during the next forty days of school.

That first day was filled with lots of energy.

There was plenty of excitement.

Pupils have earned a spot for adventures.

Get ready for excellent times!
