Each new year at PTPS brings a series of annual events which engage students and their families in the vibrant life of the school.

Some are family events such as the welcoming ice
cream social, the family picnic, the annual Halloween Parade, "Winter Jam", Family Fun Day, the Art Show, and the end of year field days. These afford great opportunities for socialization and networking with Pear Tree Point School friends.

Others are curriculum-inspired such as the fourth grade Medieval Feast, the third grade Roman Olympics, and the fifth grade trip to Gettysburg. Students research each of these events thoroughly, creating enthusiastic participation and a very satisfying culmination of their studies. Children also perform curriculum-based plays for each other and for parents as part of our Drama program.

Seasonal events include festive holiday concerts, special decorating activities, and the joy of winter sledding.

And every month the student body joins together in "Celebrate Success" assemblies to recognize students' efforts, to talk about Core Virtues, and to share students' accomplishments. Assemblies are also held to commemorate Veteran's Day, to enjoy cultural enrichment performances, and at the end of the year to "Move Up" to the next grade level.

School events are one more way to enrich our very interactive year.
