As we continue to monitor the timing and path of the storms in our state, PCSSD has decided to change to an AMI day today (April 5). We feel this is the safest decision for our students, families and staff. We understand that many families and staff still do not have power or Internet. In these cases, schools will work with them regarding any assignments or other concerns. Thank you and stay safe.
PCSSD continues to monitor the severe weather situation that is expected to move through the state overnight and into the morning. After consulting with local meteorologists as well as neighboring school districts, PCSSD will have plan to delay our start by 2.5 hours tomorrow (Wednesday, April 5). However, as we continue to monitor the storms throughout the night and in the morning, if anything changes PCSSD may adjust our decision to shift to a full AMI day tomorrow. This decision will be made by 7:30 a.m. tomorrow. Thank you, as always, for your patience.
