This is a South Area bus message. After not running normal last week, this message is to let parents know that Bus 13-20, Tim Cline, will run normally tomorrow. Again 13-20 is running tomorrow.

Don't forget that after midnight tonight, approximately 2am local time on Sunday, March 9, we spring forward 1 hour. Don't forget to change those clocks that don't automatically change.

Principal Jim Hoit, Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent of PCS, Brad Martin and Ange Varner, and Mrs. Sophia Tichenor, Academic Coach and Beanstack Supervisor, were on-hand today at South Preston to present the monthly Beanstack Trophy for February to the top-reading South Preston Students, along with their school's certificate. It's up to South now to defend their title in March. Congratulations, good luck, and keep reading. #Beanstack #PCSREADS

Please check the PCS Facebook, website, and your school's Facebooks as we've had multiple bus cancellations for tomorrow due to illness and a lack of subs. Please check Facebook this evening, and in the morning, to ensure you were not missed. We apologize as we are filling and rotating as many vacancies as we can.

This is a South Area Bus Call. Bus 13-20 Tim Cline will not run again tomorrow, Friday March 7th, and 52-25, Chuck Plum will cover most of his run. Students on Possum Hollow Road will need to meet at the Newburg Senior Center. Again, Bus 13-20, Tim Cline not running tomorrow.

Attendance Matters. Help us, help you. We know that sickness happens, and in most cases, missing school due to illness is necessary and out of our control. However, there are many other circumstances related to absences that occur, and we're always here to help. Attending school regularly is essential to students gaining the academic and social skills they need to thrive. Chronic absence, no matter its cause, has real life consequences for students, families and society as a whole. Research shows that starting as early as preschool and kindergarten, chronic absence—missing 10% of the academic year—can leave third graders unable to read proficiently, sixth graders struggling with coursework and high school students off track for graduation. Equally important, it affects personal and emotional development and makes it hard to gain the habit of showing up, which is crucial to success in the workplace. If your child is struggling with attendance, please reach out to your school's administrative team, guidance counselor, or the county attendance director and student support team. https://www.attendanceworks.org/resources/messaging/teens-and-their-families/

Read Across America Week is celebrated from March 2nd to 6th — it begins on the birthday of the beloved author, Dr. Seuss, who many schools are celebrating with a spirited dress-up week. The entire month of March, in fact, is dedicated to reading. This week, we'll be featuring a different PHS student doing a daily read aloud that our schools can share and watch with their students. First up is IsaBella Miller, a member of the Preston High School's Lady Knight's Basketball Team and journalist-to- be. She chose to read the book titled, My Tooth is Loose.
