PCSD - A message from Nurse Lindsay: All student medications must be picked up by 3pm on Monday May 19 or other arrangements need to be made. This includes Medications, inhalers and epi pens, and the parent/guardian will have to sign them out. Any medication not picked up will be properly disposed of before summer.
The cords have been handed out to the seniors. The scholarships are being announced now. If kindergarten parents want to head this way, you may park in the back parking lot and watch for the seniors and kindergarten students to gather there. That will be when you want to walk to the front office area and take your spot in the hallway to watch the students do the "Senior Walk.".
Kindergarten students will walk the hallways this morning with the 2025 graduating seniors. The Scholarship Ceremony is taking place in the auditorium this morning from 8:00 until. The senior ceremony usually takes about an hour and a half. We will send out a message by text and post on Facebook(Elementary page) and on the school website about 30 minutes before we start the walk. Parents are welcome to come up and watch the students walk with the seniors. The gates will be open for parking. The students will be paired up on the sidewalk by the kindergarten playground and then will enter the kindergarten hallway. They will walk all the hallways. The main hallway will be the best place to stand for pictures; close to the auditorium area.
PCSD: This is a reminder that there will be no school on Friday, April 18th.
