Summer Reading Lists from Miss Stuart
Dr. Young and Miss Stuart are challenging all Percy Priest Tigers to read 100 books this summer! Are you up for the challenge? Complete the challenge and receive a prize in August!
To help your kids achieve their goal, Miss Stuart has created summer reading lists for each grade. Books are available from the Nashville Public Library and Parnassus. Email Miss Stuart (Emily.Stuart@mnps.org) with any questions and check out the Library Insta page throughout the summer (@percypriestlibrary). Happy reading!
We need your help to make next year the best year yet at Percy Priest! Dedicated and engaged parents are a key ingredient to making our school the great school that it is. There are big and small volunteer opportunities throughout the year. Please check out our volunteer form and let us know what things interest you. We’ll be in touch with more information. If you have questions of any kind, please contact us at presidentsppe@gmail.com. Thank you!
