Dear Students and Parents, I am excited to welcome everyone to a new year at Poteau Upper Elementary School (UES).

Our teachers and staff are working together to make this the best year. At UES we are dedicated to students….academic achievement and safety are our top priorities.

Teachers spent time this summer attending professional development workshops to learn about new programs and plan teaching strategies to be prepared to deliver the best targeted instruction to students. We take pride in our commitment to education and look forward to working with you and your child this school year.

We would also like to encourage parents to be involved in your child's education. Students whose parents take part in their education and support learning tend to do better in school. It only takes a few minutes a day to read with your child, assist them with their homework, or just engage them in conversation about their learning. You will not regret spending time with your child.

I look forward to this new year and thank you for placing your trust in UES.

Sincerely,

Kelly Holton, Principal

Poteau Upper Elementary School
