Hi Elementary Families,

Are you familiar with our PCS Graduate Aims? If not, don’t fret! Currently, our 3rd graders are actively engaged in a project designed to educate and acquaint our elementary students and their families with the five Graduate Aims. Keep an eye out for a set of five scrapbooks, each created by our 3rd graders, showcasing all the Graduate Aims. Once their project is complete, these scrapbooks will be displayed at our front entrance. Additionally, we anticipate that their research and efforts will not only benefit them but also extend to others, as they take on the role of teaching the broader school community about our Graduate Aims. Our goal is for the gallery wall at the front entrance to intentionally reflect our Graduate Aims as teachers submit pictures for display.

The creation of our Graduate Aims involved careful consideration and intention. We aspire for our students to graduate from PCS embodying these aims: Academically Skilled, Curious, Empowered, Emotionally Intelligent, and Appreciative of Differences.
