💙 Dress-Up Days at Pine Tree Primary 💛
We love dress-up days at Pine Tree Primary! For our young learners, dressing up can be a fun way to create concrete connections to what we are learning and make school experiences more meaningful and memorable.
We also know that dress-up days can sometimes feel like one more thing for families to do. We do NOT want families to feel like they need to spend extra money to participate! Look around your house and use what you already have. A shirt, hat, pair of socks, or simple color is perfect.
⭐ All dress-up days are OPTIONAL!
Children are always included whether they dress up or not.
🎨 Color Days
We will be reviewing colors at school! Students may wear the color of the day to help make a fun connection to their learning.
September 21 — Red ❤️
September 22 — Yellow 💛

Remember: Dress-up days should be FUN, not stressful! Use what you have, participate when you can, and know that it is always okay not to dress up.
It’s a great day to be a Pirate! 💙💛🏴☠️
Lunch with Someone Grand
We are excited to invite our grandparents and special grandfriends to Lunch with Someone Grand! This special event gives our Pirates an opportunity to enjoy lunch with someone grand and then visit the Book Fair together.

All guests must bring a picture ID to be on campus.
Visiting guests must be listed as a contact in Skyward. If a guest is not listed, we will have to contact the parent/guardian for verbal permission during the event, which may cause delays.
Need to add a guest? We strongly encourage you to visit the Pine Tree Primary front office before September 19 to have your license scanned and make sure the needed guests are listed in Skyward.
Lunch Options
Your little Pirate may eat their regular cafeteria lunch for free, or you are welcome to bring outside food and drinks for your child.
Guests who would like to eat a school lunch may purchase one for $5.00 — cash only.
After eating lunch, students and their grandparents or grandfriends will have an opportunity to shop together at the Book Fair before students return to their regular school schedule.
We are looking forward to welcoming our grandparents and grandfriends to Pine Tree Primary and making some special memories with our Pirates!
We are excited to invite our grandparents and special grandfriends to Lunch with Someone Grand! This special event gives our Pirates an opportunity to enjoy lunch with someone grand and then visit the Book Fair together.
To help with space and make check-in as smooth as possible, each class has been assigned a specific day and lunch time. Please attend only during your child’s assigned time.
