Panther Family Tidbits (Sunday Afternoon Scaled Down Edition)

 

Howdy Panther Families!

I hope you had a great weekend! We’ve got another busy week ahead at Pike Middle, wrapping up with a half day on Friday. Wednesday marks our final round of Parent/Teacher Conferences, and I’ve really enjoyed hearing about all the positive conversations taking place over the past couple of weeks. While we set aside specific nights to connect, our partnership truly continues all year long!

This past week, we began assigning detentions for students who forgot their ID for a second time. Just a quick reminder—students are expected to wear their ID at all times while in the building. Overall, we’ve made great progress, but we still have about 40–50 students each day who forget. We understand that sometimes things happen beyond a student’s control, and we always take that into account. I truly appreciate those of you I’ve already reached out to about a detention—thank you for your understanding and support. The good news is, for most students, one detention is all it takes!

Here are the events coming up for this week:


10/6 - Pike Tennis

That’s all for now! As always, we appreciate everything you do to help your kids start each day ready to learn. Your support, encouragement, and partnership mean so much as we work together to give them the best school experience possible.

Until next time….y’all keep on keepin’ on, and always keep BELIEVING!!
