The first two months of the school year have flown by. We are ending October on a very positive note. Teachers have done a great job empowering and creating curiosity within students. Our kids have done such a great job coming back to in-person learning as they show respect, responsibility, and caring. We look forward to seeing many of you this week at Parent/Teacher Conferences and the Book Fair!

The weather is changing to cooler weather so make sure your students are layered with appropriate clothing. We are still spending as much time as we can outside and jackets, sweaters, and other coverings will help our students feel comfortable throughout the day.

We'll be honoring our PCS family Veterans a little differently this year, we won't have a school wide assembly. However, it's still important to us to pay tribute to our community of armed forces. If you have a family member or loved one who served, or still serves, in the US armed forces, and would like to see them honored, please email the following to Christy Wohlgemuth ( cwohlgemuth@premiercharterschool.org) later than November 5th: Veterans' Name, Rank, Branch of Service and a photo!
