Our third and fifth grade are in a competition to see how many students can level up in adaptive keyboarding in their technology classes! It sure looks like it's going to be a close race! Congratulations to all of these students for leveling up! #pespantherpride



Kindergarten is having a fantastic time with our new indoor recess carts that were recently donated by our amazing Preston Panther PTO! It may be cold outside, but they sure are having a great time inside! #pespantherpride











It's always nice when former PES Panthers come back to visit! Ms. Cheezum, who is majoring in music education and flute performance, came back to work with some of our young musicians yesterday! #pespantherpride




We are overcome with gratitude and thanks to our incredible Preston Panther PTO for the amazing new additions to our school! Because of them, panthers were welcomed back today in the New Year with a brand new basketball hoop, lines, 4 square and hopscotch painted on the blacktop. They also delivered balls for all the outdoor games and the most impressive “indoor recess carts” for every grade level to use with age appropriate toys, games, and puzzles inside! Thank you to everyone who supported and helped fundraise to make this possible! We know our panthers are going to love recess even more now rain or shine ☀️ 🏀 🧩











Happy 2024 🎈🎆🎊 Kindergartners celebrated the New Year in style today for their first day back 🥳







Happy New Year to all of our Preston community! We hope 2024 is a year full of love, family, and new adventures!
