Plainwell Community Schools - Today's Learners Tomorrow's Leaders

We are thrilled to have recently announced the opening of our new Field House! In conjunction with this, we have secured a temporary grant to enhance community engagement opportunities. However, we need **YOUR** feedback to ensure we are meeting the wants and needs of our community. Please take a moment to fill out our Communities in Motion survey by visiting plainwellschools.org/article/2227369 to assist us in evaluating community needs. Feel free to share it with anyone residing within the Plainwell Community Schools district boundaries or anyone with a student attending PCS through schools of choice, as we want to get as much feedback as possible. Thank you for your continued support of Plainwell Community Schools - GO TROJANS!
