Mrs. Nagy's class is loving learning about the Middle Ages! Each day, a student from each block is selected as "Queen" or "King" of the classroom and they get to create a rule for their class to follow! So far, some rules we have had are...
-Everyone must use their BEST handwriting
-Everyone can sit anywhere they want
-Sit at Mrs. Nagy's desk and use all her pens
-Everyone just be kind

Learning is so much fun!!!

Your Voice Matters!

Every family brings a unique perspective on what school life is really like. The School Climate Survey is your chance to share how welcome, supported, and connected you feel as a partner in your child’s education. The survey is completely anonymous, so please share openly and honestly.

Your feedback directly shapes our work to strengthen school-family partnerships and advance Priority 3 of our District Strategic Plan: Well-Being & Safety, with a focus on well-being, safety, belonging, and learning.

Together, we can build school communities where every student and family feels welcomed, valued, and supported. Thank you for helping us grow!

Please complete the Families School Climate Survey through ParentSquare by Friday, October 23.

You can make a difference.

This September, during Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, Erie's Public Schools is reminding our whole community: a mental health crisis deserves the same response as any other emergency. You don't need to be a therapist — you just need to notice, reach out, and get help.

A.C.T. if you're worried about someone:

Ask — Start the conversation. Be direct, and listen without judgment.
Care — Show you care. Stay close and keep them connected.
Tell — Bring in a trusted adult or trained professional.

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is always available: 📞 Call or text 988 — free, confidential, 24/7 📱 Safe2Say Something: 1-844-SAF2SAY ☎️ Erie Crisis Line: 814-456-2014 🏫 Talk to a school counselor, mental health specialist, or any trusted staff member

In immediate danger? Call 911.

Every student, every day. We're in this together. #SuicidePreventionMonth #EriesPublicSchools
