Families, WVGSA will be given in May. It is very important that students attend each day and arrive on time. Students who are tardy will not be permitted to enter the testing room and will have to complete the makeup test another day. We offer students an incentive each year for being on time for testing. Testing will begin on May 8 with 5th and 8th grade taking the Science test. Testing continues on May 11, 13, and 14 for all students in grades 3-8. Please avoid scheduling appointments for these days.

This week is National School Social Work Week, where we honor school social workers for their role in helping students navigate social, emotional, and academic challenges. While the entire month of March is dedicated to social work as a profession, this specific week focuses on our school-based professionals, who alongside their teachers, counselors, community members and parents, are helping to shape our future. PCS is lucky to have these individuals working alongside our staff and with our students each and every day.
