Attention 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Parents/Guardians
Please disregard the last message. I apologize for the confusion.
You will not find the Technology Handbook Acceptance attached to the registration. We will send an email that contains the Technology Handbook Acceptance and the time your child should come to PCS to pick up his/her device. Please reply to that email and let me know whether or not agree with the rules and procedures in the Technology Handbook. Again, I apologize for the confusion. Please call PCS if you have questions. That you for your patience as we begin our school year. #saukeestrong

It comes with great disappointment to share with you that the IESA has cancelled the regular season and state series for both JH Softball & JH Baseball for the 2020-2021 season. Attached below is a press release from the IESA. This can also be viewed on their website at https://iesa.org/
Attached is updated information from the IESA on junior high fall sports. This was sent out earlier this afternoon.
Current start dates for PCS fall sports are as follows:
Softball - July 27th
Baseball - August 3rd
Return to Play Conditioning has started for PHS athletes and they will be using the PHS track M-W-F from 7:45-9:30 A.M. and M-TU-TH-F from 5:00-8:00 P.M. until further notice. The track will be closed to the community during those times to allow our athletes to use the facilities. We will keep you informed of any changes to those times. The PCS walking path will still be open for walkers during those hours.
The packet pick up scheduled for today and tomorrow is for PCS only.
Thank You!
Good morning! Just a reminder: We will have an end of the year packet pick up from 10am-2pm and 4pm-6pm today. We will also have a pick up tomorrow, Thursday, 10am-2pm. This packet contains report cards and other items that are normally handed out towards the end of the school year. We look forward to seeing you at one of our pick ups! Have a great day!
PCS Parents,
We want to thank you for all the time you have taken to help your child with these educational packets. This is not the way we thought our year would go, but you have all been fantastic! We have been busy sorting and assessing the final sets of packets.
***All packets must be completed and turned in for your child to receive a 4th quarter letter grade. If students are missing any packets, or parts of packets, they will receive an “I” (incomplete) on their report card. Once the packets are completed, turned in, and assessed, the “I” will be replaced with a letter grade. All packets must be turned in no later June 17. This is the final deadline for taking packets. ***
As we assess the packets, we are sending packets back to students who did not complete part or all of a packet. Please read the notes included with these incomplete packets. If your child is still missing packet work, once the work is complete, you can drop it off in the container by the main entrance. We will continue to have our bins out daily from 8-3. Any unfinished packets can be dropped off in the bin.
Dpod 6-8 students: Fourth-quarter grades will consist of packets 2, 3, and 4.
Cpod 3-5 students: Fourth-quarter grades will consist of packets 3 and 4.
All of PCS:
We will have one final pickup. The final packet will contain report cards and other items that are normally handed out at the end of the school year.
Schedule for final pickup:
Wednesday, June 10 - 10:00am-2:00pm & 4:00pm-6:00pm
Thursday, June 11 - 10:00am-2:00pm
***There are still many library books out. Books can be returned in the same bin as the packets. We have a list of who has what book(s) out. We will begin making individual calls in the next week.***
Thank you so much for all you are doing. We realize this has been a long process. We also realize the students are ready to be done. We wish they could have finished the year at school with us. We love and miss our kids so much!
