Welcome to Election day. A great day to celebrate that we live in a free democracy and as veterans day approaches a reminder that this has come at a price. We should take time to be thankful for all the sacrifice and service that people have given to assure our freedom. If you are 18 or older it is a right to vote.

A reminder for Flag football club members to vote for the 3 all stars of their choice in the office this week.

Today we are hosting a mock election. Voting will take place in the lobby from 8:30 - 2:00. Students and staff are welcome to vote. Teachers may take students down to the lobby during class or students and staff can vote when they have free time. We will try and announce the PCSS results by the end of the day.

Seniors just a reminder that Senior privileges are now requiring that you maintain an 80 average.

Middle school basketball tryouts continue tonight. Boys from 3:00 - 4:30 and girls from 4:30 - 6:00 pm.
