PGMS Families, Parent Teacher Conferences for PGMS students are next Tuesday and Thursday October 17th and 19th from 3:30 to 6:30 pm. Conferences are come-and-go with no appointment needed, but we are encouraging students with last names A to M to come on Tuesday and students with last names N to Z to come on Thursday, if at all possible. There will be a Spanish-speaking translator available on Tuesday evening for anyone who needs it. Please only enter through the front doors, where you will pick up your student's report card before meeting with as many or as few of your student's teachers that you please. There will be an optional Title I information meeting in the Library each night at 5:00 pm as well. If you have any questions, please contact our office at (479) 846-4220. Thank you!
Prairie Grove Middle School PTO will be hosting a Masquerade Ball on Friday, October 20 from 4:30-6:30 PM. This is a family event - siblings are welcome! Students are NOT PERMITTED to be dropped off unattended. We will have concessions and light up souvenirs available for purchase, and tickets are $1 per person. Wear your favorite costume or your best formal attire and join us for a fun evening!
We had an accidental Active Shooter activation on our notification app. Again this was an accidental activation, please disregard it. It was a medical issue.
Reminder - There will be no school on Monday, October 9.
PGMS Families, Students who are checking out for any reason, including reasons related to homecoming, can only leave PGMS with an adult on their contact list. If an adult who is not on your student's contact list attempts to check your student out, we will call you to verify, even if that adult shows up with a note. Please be ready to show your ID when checking a student out from PGMS. There is no need to come to PGMS to check your child out if they will be riding a float for peewee cheer or football. Given that you have provided permission to their coach, those students will be escorted to PGHS in grade-level groups on Friday afternoon. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!
