2023-24  Campaign Project

We want your ideas for our next project. How would you like to spend the PTA funds? What improvements would you like to see? What does PBE Need? Ask your child. We are looking for ideas and for ways to involve more students, families and community members in this process.

Please let us know your ideas by completing this form:

PBE Parents and Community here: https://forms.gle/QYwnYnmPHKAtZVLZ7

Teachers/Admin/Staff here: 

 

Some ideas we have received so far:

-Replace Playground (cost about $230,000 before grants)

-A/C in Gym

-Basketball Courts

-Outdoor Classroom

 - Dividers for the "pod" classroom

The units would have doors that close on one side for storage and have tackboard or a whiteboard on the back that can be used by the teacher and absorb sound. The first image shows the sizes required to close the areas in as requested.

Reflections Program

 

National PTA’s Reflections program has helped students explore their own thoughts, feelings and ideas, develop artistic literacy, increase confidence and find a love for learning that will help them become more successful in school and in life.

 

Each year, over 300,000 students in Pre-K through Grade 12 create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme. In response to this theme, students create works of art in one or all the available arts categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, Visual Arts.
