Please Review Pacific!
One easy, zero-cost way you can support Pacific School is by writing a short review of our TK-6th school and/or Pacific Preschool. Just three minutes of your time makes a big difference! Right now we have very few reviews, which makes it harder for families to find out about our award-winning programs and small, supportive community. Please Review Us Now:
Have more time? Please leave a review in any of these additional places:
If you share your reviews with eandrews@pacificesd.org, Elizabeth can also add them to the school website. Thanks so much!!!

$BUCK-A-BOOK$
Buck a Book / Book swap Friday May 26th The Buck a Book fundraiser is going to be the last day of school. It will be a great way for everyone to get a book for $1 for summer reading. We do need help prior to that event with sorting books and taking off library stickers. This task can happen any time before as we already have many donated books gathered at school. There is still time to donate books for this event. There is a box in the school office for donations. Please sign up on our Volunteer sheet above. Good condition children's/YA book donations wanted! Students and families are encouraged to drop off gently used children’s/YA books to the office. Books will be available for purchase for – you guessed it – a buck a book (or other donation amount). You can also pay it forward and purchase tickets so someone else can pick a book. All proceeds benefit PSF/the library and our school community so clean out your bookshelves then fill them up with some new favorites! Happy reading! 
Extra Tea Towels Available for Purchase
All 2022-23 students, staff and teachers created a self portrait drawing and the drawings were combined to create one school tea towel. A limited number of tea towels are available in Black, Blue or Red. Tea towels are $20 each and can be purchased in the school office. 
School Spirit Day is Every Thursday! Purchase your spirit gear from the 12th to the end of each month - year round!
