Dear Students and Parents,

I am excited to welcome everyone to a new year at Poteau Upper Elementary School (UES). We have several new faces in our building this year and are excited to add their expertise to our existing UES team. Our teachers and staff have been working hard to prepare for the 2025-2026 school year. We hope to make it our best year yet! UES places academic achievement and safety as top priorities in order to educate students. We do this by taking advantage of professional development opportunities, building a strong team to help each other be the best we can be, and by utilizing various resources to create a safe and caring environment where students are able to find success. We welcome parent/guardian involvement in educating your child. It truly is a team effort. When the parents, faculty and staff, and child all make learning a priority, good things happen! Communication is key to building a team. UES strives to make communication a priority. I look forward to building new relationships with each of you with the goal of ending the year better than when we started. Thank you for placing your trust in UES. Every Pirate, Every Day! Sincerely, Andrea Moore, Principal Poteau Upper Elementary School
