A Note from the Principal
Hello PCMS Families,
It’s been quite a year! Lots of new procedures, protocols, and learning models. Our middle school students were troopers, adjusting to each new challenge that was thrown their way. There were different organizational demands and technology skills that were learned along the way- on the student and educator end! Thank you to our parents (and all the students’ support networks) for helping them navigate this very unusual year in education. We are looking forward to the 2021-2022 school year and know that many of the skills the students learned this year will help them as they move on to 8th grade or high school. Thank you for your patience and support. I am hoping everyone has some well-deserved downtime this summer.
Best,
Donna McGarrigle
