We would like to recognize these two amazing 6th graders for their year-long perseverance in securing new vending machines for our campus! They deserve a round of applause for all their efforts in proposing, researching, and negotiating this initiative to our Head of School and Board of Trustees on behalf of their fellow students, AND for their efforts in ensuring that unhealthy options like candy and soda are not offered. Thank you to PES parent Cory Neff for her help in securing the delivery/installation of the vending machines last week on behalf of these students. #peswelldonewednesday #peswellnesswednesay ...
