Please see the following highlights of events happening at Peterson and throughout our district this week.

This Thursday, we welcome our families to our annual Open House event. This is a great opportunity to visit your child’s classroom, see the projects they’ve been working on, and celebrate the learning that has taken place throughout the year. Students are encouraged to attend with their families. We look forward to seeing everyone on campus for this special evening!

Please note that our TK classrooms are open from 5:00-6:00p.m. while all other grades are open from 6:00-7:00p.m. We encourage those who live close enough to walk to campus to please do so and help ease the congestion throughout the neighborhood.

On behalf of the Peterson staff, I would like to extend a big 'thank you' to our incredible PTA and all those who have contributed to our Staff Appreciation days each Thursday in May, we have definitely felt the love!

With Dolphin Pride,

Dr. Smith-Johnson

Principal
