We look forward to welcoming your child for the 2019-2020 school year. This year, our theme is "The Adventure Begins". Each school year presents new successes, challenges, and obstacles for our student. Our focus this coming school year at PVES will be holding students to high expectations and pushing them to try their hardest each and every day. We will also be working to increase our school-home communication, especially in regards to academics. One way we are doing this is by creating a new shared PVES Parent Google Drive folder where resources can be easily accessed from anywhere.
You can access that drive by clicking here
On the Shared Google Drive, you will find our supplies list, the dress code, the school calendar, and much more.

Panther Valley Elementary School’s vision is to provide a clear path for
academic achievement by meeting the needs of each individual student.
We are committed to seeing students model positive behavior, a strong
work ethic, and a belief in oneself. Collaboration and communication
among school, home, and the community is essential for student success.
At PVES, our English Language Arts curriculum, uses Fountas & Pinnell Classroom as a framework. Students participate in a read aloud, shared
read, guided reading, and independent reading each day. This allows
students to receive direct instruction in comprehension skills and
phonics skills, as well as more individualized support in a small group
setting. We have a partnership with the American Reading Company to
provide students with independent reading materials. This program is
sponsored by Ametek Plastics Inc.
In math, we use the MyMath curriculum. This set of instructional
materials has a technology component to support student learning. You
are able to access your students' materials from home to help them
succeed in math.
We have a Positive Behavior Support Program at the school. This program
encourages students to be Cool Cats! Our three character traits that
are taught throughout the school are Be Safe, Be Responsible, Be
Respectful. Students are given direct instruction on what these
expectations look like across all settings. Students are given Cool Cat
tickets when they demonstrate behavior that shows one or more of these
expectations. Each day, one student is selected as the Cool Cat of the
Day by a staff member. This student has their picture taken with the
principal and shared out on our Facebook page. They also get a positive
phone call home from the principal.
If there is anything I can do to help you or your child, please do not hesitate to give me a call at the school. The best way to reach me is to leave a message with one of our administrative assistants and I will return your call within 24 hours.
Sincerely,
Robert Palazzo
Elementary Principal
