PMS Week Ahead Messages

Week Ahead May 23, 2025

Next week is the last week of school for the 24-25 school year! We are at the point where backpacks are not needed, so please ensure they are left at home next week. Students are allowed to carry lunch boxes, small purses, etc., for incidentals, but any backpacks or large bags brought to school will be held in Student Services.

The Week Ahead May 16, 2025

On behalf of our faculty and staff, we are so proud of all the accomplishments your children have made this year! We are especially excited to celebrate our 8th graders on Friday for their promotion ceremony. Parking for the promotion ceremony will be in the North Field – please look for signs directing you there.

The Week Ahead May 9, 2025

With only 14 days of school left for the 24-25 school year, your kiddos are still showing up strong! Shout out to our 7th graders who knocked the Civics end-of-course exam out of the park today, demonstrating double digit gains based on preliminary data! Staying focused on academics is key right now, most especially for our 8th graders who need to be passing all core content areas in order to promote to high school on time and avoid summer school. Please check on your child’s progress today!

The Week Ahead April 25, 2025

Our final round of state testing begins next Thursday with 8th grade taking the ELA FAST Assessment. 7th grade will take the same assessment on Friday. Please assist your child’s success on all upcoming testing dates by ensuring they are well-rested, have eaten breakfast, and are present and on-time to school so that they can complete the task with their regular group of classmates.

The Week Ahead April 17, 2025

We have received official word that the road closures assisting with the securing of our campus will begin May 1st. Please take a look at the map included in the Pirate Press for awareness of where the roads will be closed from 6:15am to 2:00pm, as well as where the walker and car rider entry gate is. We anticipate that drop-off and pick up traffic will be challenging for a while as we get acclimated to the change, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we learn the new routine together. It is all in the interest of student and staff safety.
