Good Evening, this is Eric Brand, Principal at Peterson-Central Elementary. As we attempt to make parent pick-up an easier, less congested and much less of a headache process, please refer to the new graphic posted on classdojo and social media. Effective tomorrow, Wednesday, September 11, we will start a new parent-pick up procedure. Please make sure to review this process so that we can easily streamline this to make it more effective, safer, and quicker for our school families. As with any new process, please be patient, as you already have been with our long line, as we work out some of the bugs and get our students used to a new routine.


PCES: Bus 15-23 will not be making a morning or afternoon run tomorrow, Tuesday, September 10. Students will need to be parent transport. Families that do not have a way to school may contact the office, send a note on the day of return, or submit an excuse online to get this absence excused.

PCES: REMINDER: Good Evening, this is Eric Brand, Principal at Peterson-Central Elementary with an important reminder for all school families. Working in conjunction with the Lewis County Transportation Department and the Board of Education, beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, September 3, Peterson-Central Elementary will change our end of day instructional time from 2:50pm to 3:00pm. This means that parent pickup will not start until 3:05pm and buses will not start loading until 3:02pm. Bus stop drop off times will be altered by roughly 10 minutes. Please make proper arrangements to adhere to this new dismissal time as we work through this time change. This change will be in effect for the remainder of the 2024-2025 school year. As always it's an honor to teach your child and thank you for trusting them with us. Have a good evening!
