Mrs. Lisa is a long-standing, dedicated leader at PES. She works extremely hard to ensure that our students are served breakfast and lunch each day, as well as taking care of our staff members. She runs a tip-top kitchen and is a respected leader in our school district. She is always willing to step in and lend a hand whenever needed, and she does it all with a generous heart and a smile on her face. We are very fortunate to have Mrs. Lisa as a part of our PES Family and recognize her as Farm Bureau's Employee of the Month! 💙💛

Manatee Families! We’re so excited to celebrate together at the Paterson Family Luncheon TODAY! 🎉🦃

Please arrive 10 minutes before your child’s lunchtime and stop by the front office for your visitor badge—please keep it visible while on campus.

If you pre-purchased an adult meal, head into the cafeteria and go through the lunch line. Just share your child’s student ID number with the cafeteria staff. Prefer to bring your own lunch? That’s perfectly fine too!

We’re expecting a big turnout, so thank you in advance for your patience during check-in.

We can’t wait to share this holiday moment with you! 💛

Take a moment to ask your child what they’re thankful for today—and what they’ve learned about the history behind the Thanksgiving holiday.

Mrs. McCarty’s 2nd graders and Mrs. Ellsworth’s Pre-K students have been busy sharing and writing down all the things they’re grateful for. We love seeing their hearts shine! 🦃✨

6th grade and kindergarten have both been working on force and motion this quarter. Today they paired up in our science lab to use catapults, built by 6th graders, to launch cotton balls at targets with our kindergarten friends…. It was awesome! #scienceinaction
