Dear Poplar Tree Families,
We had another wonderful concert last night. It was exciting to hear our Chorus and 5th/6th grade strings students perform. They sounded great!
Itās hard to believe that next Friday will be the final student day of the 2021-22 school year.Ā As we say farewell to another school year, we also need to sadly say farewell to the following staff members who will be beginning new adventures.
Connie Combs, Kindergarten Instructional Assistant, retiring
Susan Nissen, Instructional Assistant, retiring
Katrina Hutzell, 1st grade teacher, moving to South Carolina
Dan Penley, 5th grade teacher, will be teaching PE at Floris ES
Denise Rohlfing, Public Health Assistant, transferring to Fairfax Villa
We wish them all the best and thank them for their years of service at Poplar Tree!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Take care,Ā
Sue Andujar, Principal
Carol Larsen, Assistant Principal
POPLAR TREE GRAD WALK 2022
Poplar Treeās 2022 Grad Walk was a memorable one as we welcomed our 2016 graduates home.Ā As the sounds of Rockinā Panther played throughout our building, our students and staff cheered as the Seniors walked through our hallways once more. Afterwards, the Seniors stopped into classrooms to visit with teachers and students.Ā For more pictures, follow us on Twitter @PoplarTreeES or @PTES_Counselors.
Congratulations, 2022 Graduates!
A message from
Ms. Johnson, band director
At Poplar Tree Elementary School we have great a thriving band program and we want your raising 5th or 6th grader to be a part of it! During the 2022-2023 school year students will meet in instrument specific classes once a week and come together as a large band two times per year for concerts. Students will have the opportunity to try all the instruments to find the best fit for them before they leave for summer. In order for me to know who wants to try the instruments and join band please fill out the Google registration form by June 6. Feel free to fill it out even if you aren't completely sure but are interested in joining next year.Ā
