Spring is a busy season with exciting school and PTSA events like the School Play, Carnival, field trips, and yearbook distribution.
 

We want every Eagle to be able to enjoy these school-wide activities. The PTSA offers need-based student support scholarships to help cover costs, ensuring that no one misses out. Scholarships are available throughout the entire school year and the process is completely confidential.

 

For questions or to apply, please reach out to Kristen Bauer, our school counselor at kbauer@lwsd.org.

Great news! Yearbook distribution is happening soon for students who've already purchased theirs.

  • 5th Grade students will receive their yearbooks in class on Friday, June 20.

  • Kindergarten through 4th Grade students will receive their yearbooks in class on Monday, June 23.

Purchase a Yearbook

A limited number of yearbooks are still available for $25 each! If you'd like to purchase one, here are your options:

  • After School Sale (Take Home Immediately): The PTSA will have a table set up before and after school on Monday, June 23, and Tuesday, June 24. Yearbooks purchased on these days can be taken home right away, while supplies last.
  • Can't Make It? If you're unable to make these times, or if you're not sure if you've already purchased a yearbook, please email us at yearbook@peterkirkptsa.org. We're happy to help arrange an alternate pickup or answer any questions, especially if you'll be traveling and need to pick up your yearbook before or after your trip.

Marathon 2025 Recap

 
What an epic marathon! The event wrapped on Tuesday, June 10th and our students ran over 8,000 miles in 26 days. Special shoutout to the students who completed 4 marathons for the first time ever in marathon history! In addition, the average mileage for our students was 14.9, meaning we averaged over a half marathon for every Peter Kirk Eagle. Lastly, kudos to Ms. Chung's class for averaging 27.8 miles with 16 marathon finishers. WAY TO GO!
 

Prizes: foot charms necklaces for all participants and water bottle stickers / bracelets for full marathon finishers have been distributed to teacher mailboxes.

 

Last, but certainly not least, THANK YOU to all the volunteers who helped make the marathon such a huge success this year!

 

For additional details, graphs, finishers, and photos please visit our marathon website.

 

If you would like a copy of your child's finisher photo, please contact the marathon committee.

Peter Kirk Birding Club had its final field trip May 17.  Over the course of the year students collectively observed 63 species of birds. 15 students participated during our monthly trips to various parks.  Current fourth-graders will be invited to join in September!
