PES welcomed a 1st grade student who served as acting Head of School yesterday, with exciting proclamations of a uniform-free day, extra recess, special morning announcements, pizza for lunch, and even a schoolwide surprise treat! “Be HOS for the Day” is one of many popular annual auction offerings that families can bid on for their students.
