TOP 10 REASONS FOR ATTENDING PES
At Payson Elementary School we believe that right personal relationships and right attitudes will do more for education than all the gadgets, kits, test workbooks, imposed discipline and rules in the world.
1. We really do believe the introduction
statement.
2. It's clean.
3. Not only do we believe it - we practice it.
People at our site bend over backwards to help
each other, and fill in for each other whether or
not it is in their regular job description.
4. Our entire staff cafeteria workers, teachers,
classroom aides, workroom aides and office
personnel consider themselves "on duty" at
all times and are very attentive to detail.
5. It's spotless.
6. We believe that self-esteem comes from
competency; competency comes from
practicing correctly; practicing correctly comes
from careful systematic instruction and holding
students accountable.
7. Your children will know their multiplication
and division math facts backward and for-
ward by the time they leave Guaranteed!
This is the gateway to many other math
application skills.
8. Our custodians and maintenance staff take
great pride in their work each night so that
children and teachers have a safe, clean
environment every day.
9. Panthers can outrun bulldogs and wolves any
day. Plus they can climb trees (Check your
encyclopedia to verify this.)
10. We believe in hard work but lots of fun!
