PHS FALL CHORAL CONCERT: It’s an exciting day for our choir programs, as they make their final preparations before the PHS Fall Choral Concert! Join us this evening (October 21) at 7 PM for the Plainwell High School Fall Choral Concert at the Performing Arts Center. The show will feature music from "The Wonderful World of Disney", as well as a special performance from the 7th and 8th grade choir programs.
LITTLE FREE ROBOT LIBRARY: Have you seen the Little Robots that are stationed outside of each of the elementary buildings? These Robots are home to the Little Free Libraries (LFL) which are stocked full of FREE books that are available to our early childhood/elementary (baby-5th grade) students and community members. Families are welcome to take a book without a donation or "take a book and leave a book", either way we encourage you to pick-up a FREE book for your child! The LFL Robots were purchased from the United Way to help promote literacy in our community, so please stop by one of our elementary buildings (Cooper, Gilkey or Starr) to pick-up a FREE book today!
CONTINUING THEIR EDUCATION: The PCS teachers are always working hard to continue to learn the latest in education. Here are some of our elementary teachers who attended a Math Recovery Training recently. So thankful for our educators - their dedication to provide the very best education for the PCS students is second to none - THANK YOU!
GECKO TIE DYE FUN: Last Friday, the 5th grade students at Gilkey Elementary worked on a fun project while making tie dye tshirts! The students will be wearing their creations at the upcoming “Rock the Block” fundraiser at Gilkey on October 22. Thank you to the Gilkey Parents Club and all the volunteers who made this project possible for these students.
