The creative journey has begun at PES! Our 4th and 5th graders are exploring 3D printing with our new Bambu P1S printers. Using Tinkercad, they're learning design skills and starting with these fantastic name projects. So proud of their progress! #LearningByDoing #3DDesign







Ms. Coleman's 5th graders delivered a hilarious April Fools' Day surprise for Ms. Hahnenkamp! The look on her face when she saw what their screen looked like was pure shock and amusement. It's great to see the joy and lightheartedness in the classroom. Well done class!


These two girlies are the first to have earned one hundred points in AR. Mrs. Epley bought them lunch from McDonald's to celebrate this accomplishment. Way to go, Lily and Hailey!

PJHS students and staff celebrated a successful year with the 2025 Rebecca Caudill Young Reader's Choice Award Program. 🏆79 PJHS students participated in the program by reading books from the 2025 Rebecca Caudill Nominee list. 11 PJHS staff members also participated in the program by reading and attending monthly meetings to discuss the books they read. Together, students and staff read a total of 233 books from the 2025 Rebecca Caudill list. Students and staff celebrated with school-wide Literary Trivia, voting, certificates, and sweet treats! Great reading PJHS students and staff! 🐾📚


Which is better, book or movie?📘🎦 The 3rd graders have been busy at the PES Library! Students shared who has been reading books from the Dog Man series, who has seen the new Dog Man movie, and who wants to see the Dog Man movie! More kids have read the books than seen the movie! 📘🐕Students then used inspiration from the author and illustrator of the Dog Man series, Dav Pilkey, to create their own comics! 💭 The future of readers, authors, and illustrators here in Pana is very bright!


Our PES staff had a blast with a 2-day Rock, Paper, Scissors competition! Staff members battled for beads, and the top 4 faced off in an epic student-watched finale. Huge congrats to Mrs. Collins, our champion, and all the top finishers! https://tinyurl.com/4sy46bwk
