Dear Peterborough Elementary School Families, 

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year at Peterborough Elementary School! I am honored to serve as your school principal and I would like to extend a warm welcome to you as we start this new school year together. I look forward to getting to know all of the PES families and community better. 

I believe that communication and collaboration are a vital part of your child’s success and I want you to know that my door is always open. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns throughout the school year. The staff at PES is committed to fostering a respectful, safe, and kind learning environment where we see students learn and grow as individuals. By working together, we can help all students reach their full potential. 

I look forward to working with you to make this an engaging and successful school year!

Sincerely, 

Tammy O’Connor Principal, Peterborough Elementary School

Mrs. Morris has planned a great morning filled with fun and active games. Students should bring a change of clothes (chances are they could get wet - we have some water games planned). If it is sunny on Friday, they should bring a hat and should have sunscreen applied before arriving to school. And of course, they should bring a water bottle and a snack. We have also partnered with the PES PTO to bring the Kona Ice Truck to school that day for a cool, icy treat in the afternoon. If your child cannot have, or you prefer that they don't have, an icy treat from Kona Ice, please reach out to me so we can still do something special. We are looking forward to a great day!
