Dear PES Families,

Our newsletter can be accessed here.

What a wonderful first week we have here at Preston Elementary School! We welcomed back all of our PES Panthers, and it truly was like they never left! Seeing their smiling faces, and watching them settle right back into showing PES Panther Pride was nothing short of amazing! We would like to thank all of our PES teachers and staff and our Panther families for making this week such a success! 

Please be sure to like us on Facebook to see all of the fantastic photos we have posted from our opening week! 

This week we will be preparing to welcome our newest Panthers, as Pre-K 3 and 4 are getting ready to start! Pre-K 3 and 4 Orientation will be on Wednesday, September 4th from 2 to 3 PM at PES. This will be an opportunity for Pre-K families to tour their student's classroom and drop off supplies. The first day for all CCPS programming will be on Thursday, September 5th.

PES Back to School Night will be on Monday, September 23rd from 6 to 7 PM. This event will be a time to come see your student's classroom and get an overview/updates from teachers on the new school year. The Preston Panther PTO will also be on hand for membership signups, as well as Kona Ice for all families (with proceeds benefitting the Preston Panther PTO). We will also have a local Community Schools Partner fair in the cafeteria with many of our local vendors who support PES!

Our school supply lists are out. School Supply lists for ALL grade levels can be found on our PES website, or by going to the direct link: PES School Supplies 2023-2024.
