Campus Opens at 7:00am
This is a friendly reminder that campus is closed until 7:00am. You can find our policy on Before and After school hours on page 12 of our PKES Family Handbooks. Not only is dropping off your child prior to 7:00am against school policy, but more importantly, it poses a great safety risk since there is no staff supervision. We thank you for your cooperation in following our guidelines. Mahalo!
BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND!

Wellness Tip of the Week
Here are some self care tips to help brighten your days...
Watch cute animal videos: Another instant serotonin boost.
Schedule a therapy session: Whether you’re actively attending or never have before – book it.
Text someone you love and check-in: “Hey, you good? Just checking in.” works perfectly.
Repeat positive affirmations to yourself: Write them down somewhere that you see often.
Watch a movie that makes you smile every time: A feel-good movie always wins.
Unplug for a day: Or for the majority of the day, at least.
Get a good night’s rest: Research shows that adults need at least 7 hours of sleep.
