♥️Character Warms the Heart Week: February 12-16
February 12-16 is our Pirates ROCK "Character Warms the Heart" week, when we warm up with our good character and great leadership with fun spirit week activities and collect items for our Treasure Chest resource center to help PCR-3 families in need. We're collecting shampoo & conditioner, body wash, deodorant, and toilet paper this year. Participate in our spirit days and send in any donations to our schools! The class, PLT, or Advisory in each school with the most donated items will receive a donut party!
Reminder: Friday, February 16 there is no school for our Professional Learning Day. See flier for details on our spirit days and come cheer on our Pirates at the Home Basketball games on February 16!
