Weekly Message for the Week of 9-9-24

Good evening, Green Devil Families!

Here is your September 9th weekly update for school events and information:

*Please note that we will be administering the PM1 (progress monitoring) FAST testing to all 9th and 10th grade students on Wednesday, September 11th.  Students will need their district issued laptops for testing so please help us to remind students to not only bring those to school but, to make sure they are fully charged.

PLEASE remind your child that:

  • They should take their time when completing this test.  They can take the entire school day if needed.
  • The test is adaptive, which means it changes as students answer questions.  Students should NOT skip any questions as the test will perceive that is them not knowing the answer and it will negatively affect their score.
  • When students are answering the questions correctly the test will becoming more challenging.  This means they are doing well!
  •  Students should do their absolute best to answer each and every question.  They should NOT guess but, use a process of elimination to narrow down the options and select the best choice.
  • The way they do on this test will affect where they start off on the PM2 (Progress Monitoring 2) test so it is very important that they do the best they can on every progress monitoring test given.

*Our campus is open from 6:30AM-2:30PM each day.  No student should be dropped off before 6:30AM and all students (unless they are in a school sponsored event and with an adult sponsor) should be OFF campus no later than 2:30PM.

Our office hours are 7:00AM to 3:00PM.  If you need to sign your child out early from school, please make sure to do so prior to 1:30 PM.  NO PTLs will be permitted after 1:30, students cannot be released during the last 25 minutes of the day.

*Underclass picture day will be on September 17th.  Order forms were handed out this past week to students through their 1st period classes.  Underclass retakes will be done on October 22nd.  If there are any questions please reach out to Ashlie Flanigan, our yearbook advisor at Flanigana@pcsb.org

*Our first SAC (School Advisory Council) meeting will be held on Monday, September 9th.  This meeting is open to anyone who would like to attend.  Please plan to park in the FACULTY parking lot and enter the campus on the doors on the WEST side of the main building.  Meeting will be held in the Cafeteria starting at 6PM.
