🏀💜 Ballin’ with Bickley – Record Crew! 💜🏀
Tuesday morning brought our largest group yet for Ballin’ with Bickley! This awesome crew warmed up with some shooting before jumping into a head-to-head challenge. 🔥
It was incredible to see our older students show kindness and leadership by including our younger players — and let’s just say, the younger crew came ready to dominate! 😄👏
What a fun, positive way to start the day at PGE! 💜🐬

⛳💜 When Plans Change, We Pivot! 💜⛳
Our 4th grade team showed incredible flexibility after their field trip was canceled prior to spring break. After several attempts to reschedule, our teachers found a creative way to pivot — turning the day into an in-school mini golf experience that tied in math learning! 📏✨
While it wasn’t the original trip connected to their book study, it turned into a day full of fun, learning, and meaningful memories together.
Way to make the most of every moment, 4th grade! 💜🐬

After a full day on a field trip, Principal Ritter jumped right into his hour of duty without missing a beat! 👏

Our rain barrel for the Water Conservation Awareness Contest is complete!

Washington Farmers Market, so keep your eye out and vote for all the beautiful hardwork of our PGE students!

For our fifth grade girls: Eastside will be having open gyms for girls interested in basketball next year. They will be on Tuesdays from 5-7pm from now until the end of the school year. Everyone must have an updated sports physical to participate.
There is nothing like the excitement of smooshing a pie in the face of an adult. Check out Mrs. Kellie's students pieing Nacho in the face AND Mrs. Atkinson's students getting a 2 for 1 with a pie to Nacho and Mrs. Atkinson! The APEX team has been bringing the excitement since the day they stepped into the building!!
