Panther Valley Elementary School serves students in grades kindergarten through 3rd grade. We also offer Pre-K Counts programming through a collaborative effort with Lehigh Valley Children's Center. The Pre-K Counts center is located in Coaldale, PA and transportation is available. For the most current information about the elementary school, please visit our Facebook page or login to Class Dojo. If you are looking to register your child for the 2025-2026 school year, please contact Mrs. Garounsky at 570-645-2175 for students in grades 1 through 12. If your child is entering kindergarten or you are interested in pre-kindergarten, please come to the elementary school between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. to pick up a registration packet. You may also pick-up enrollment packets for Pre-K Counts at the elementary school. Students must be 3 on or before September 1st to be enrolled in Pre-K Counts and they must turn 5 on or before September 1st to be enrolled in kindergarten. The first day of school for students is Monday, August 25th, 2025. You will receive information in the mail in early August that informs you of your child's classroom teacher, the bus schedule, and other important information for the start of the school year. At PVES we value your role in the educational community and look forward to partnering with you throughout the upcoming school year. We do ask that you please reach out to your child's teacher for any concerns. They will return your call, message, or email within 1-2 days. If I can be of any assistance, after speaking with them, please email me at [email protected] or call the school and ask to speak with me. Sincerely, Dr. Paula Jones Elementary School Principal 2025-2026 Calendar
