STARR READERS: Students in Ms. Shooks first grade class at Starr Elementary had lots of fun throughout the month of March with guest readers. They had staff from Starr, the Middle School and the High School, as well as students, Ms. Shooks’ family, and community members visit to share their favorite books! The students loved it and it brought so much joy to their classroom.
IT’S SPRING BREAK! As a reminder, there is no school from Friday, April 1-Friday, April 8 for Spring Break. We wish our students, staff and families a wonderful break filled with relaxation and happy memories!
Have a great break and Go Trojans!

READING MONTH: One of the many ways that Mrs. Stamos and Mr. Manting celebrate during Reading Month is to read to the 5th grade students throughout PCS. Last week they read “I Am One, A Book of Action” to the 5th graders at Starr and Gilkey Elementary Schools. As Principal and Assistant Principal at the Middle School, they enjoyed this time sharing information and answering questions. Next up, they will stop at Cooper Elementary to meet with the 5th grade Koalas!
