Halloween @ PRES! Today was a lot of fun for students and staff!  Click here to see photos from the Halloween Parade and Classroom Festivities! Enjoy! Parent Conferences are Coming! Please see the two files below to assist you in scheduling your conferences with your child's teacher on the Pick a Time Website. Nov Conferences Letter.pdf pickAtime%20Parent%20Directions%20for%20Using%20pickAtime.pdf In February 2011 Pointers Run will be hosting its first annual STEM Fun Day in which students in grades K through 5 will be participating in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math activities all day long.  Students will rotate through 5 - 6 stations in their grade completing a variety of engaging activities.  If you are a professional in a STEM field or are just interested in getting involved in this exciting day, we are looking for parent volunteers to organize and/or run activities, and discuss their career for multiple student groups.  If you are interested or would like more information, please email Jessica Brown at Jessica_brown@hcpss.org.  The event is far away but it is going to take a lot of planning to make the day a success, please reserve your spot now!  Thanks! The FluMist clinic at PRES originally scheduled for Sept 22 and Nov 2 has been placed on hold due to vaccine supply.  According to the Health Dept/HCPSS Health Services, they are still hoping to provide the vaccine at school.  However, it is suggested to not wait if you are able to get the vaccine through your private health care provider. There is a new Howard County Policy for writing a check as payment.  For more information, please read the attached memo. Check Writing Policy.pdf Switch from eSchool News to HCPSS News Sign up for HCPSS News at www.hcpssnews.com and get up to the minute newsletters and notifications from PRES..  Individuals will also be able to access online subscription through the school system's website.
