📣 Welcome Back, Parents and Little Dragons! 🐉🍎✏️

We are so excited to kick off another amazing school year at Purcell Elementary! 💚 Our teachers have been hard at work getting everything ready, and we can’t wait to welcome our Little Dragons back into the building! 🏫🎉

Each month, I’ll be sharing The Dragon Flyer 📰 — the principal’s newsletter — here on Seesaw. I’m sharing this month’s edition now to help all incoming students and families get started off strong. 🐾 Pre-K pick-up & drop-off routines are included, along with other important information.

Your child’s teacher will share their class Seesaw code at Back-to-School Night, and you’ll receive weekly newsletters directly from the classroom with updates on instruction and learning. 📝✨

🚗 Help us keep all students safe! Please remember that pick-up and drop-off areas are no phone zones — avoid texting or talking on the phone during these times. Your attention helps keep our Little Dragons safe! ❤️🛑📵

Let’s make this school year one to remember — full of learning, laughter, and growth! 🌟🐉🎓

With Dragon Pride,
Mrs. Stone

Help Us Paint Our Playground! Painted Playscapes are colorful, interactive games and activities that brighten up outdoor areas. These vibrant designs encourage physical activity, promote social interaction, and support fun learning experiences for students. Thanks to our partnership with TSET and Healthy Schools Oklahoma (HSOK), we have the exciting opportunity to paint the concrete on the playground! This project will transform the space into a dynamic and engaging area where students can enjoy new ways to move, play, and learn. We need volunteers to help make it happen! Join us on Friday, August 8th at 8:30am to help paint our playground. No experience necessary-just a willingness to lend a hand! If you're interested in volunteering, please contact Katrina Wilkins at wilkinsk@purcellps.org or call 405-442-0099. Let's work together to make our school playground even more fun and active for our students!
