HALLOWEEN INFO: Middle School students may wear Halloween costumes to school on Friday, October 29th! We'll also have our annual costume contest during lunch.
Categories are
--Occupations
--Creative
--Celebrity/Character
--Humorous
--Halloween Spirit
Masks may be worn for the contest, but the rest of the day masks need the teacher's permission. NO weapons (even fake ones). Costumes must be dress code appropriate. Makeup is fine IF it doesn't create a distraction (super gory, messy, and/or missing class time for constant re-application).
Please remember that at this time, we can't allow treats from home to be shared with others, but we're confident everyone will make up for it with large amounts of candy over the weekend!
ATHLETICS CHANGE: The modified volleyball game originally scheduled for today at 5pm has been moved to the same time tomorrow, 10/13, at 5pm in the MS gym. @pi_one_er
Next week is Spirit Week! Monday is a day off. Check out the attachment for the day themes. https://5il.co/10776
What's for lunch? October's menu: https://5il.co/zsbn
Important! Ms. Prorok's robocall from 9/30/21:
Good evening, Pioneer Middle School families. I hope everyone is well and enjoying the fall weather. This call is to update you on our after-school bus transportation. Bus transportation continues to get better each week, but we are still not quite there. So bus transportation from after-school programs at 3:15 will begin on October 12th.
Students who have a ride or can walk home at 3:15 are welcome to continue to come to after-school activities at this time.
Have a great night.
PICTURE DAY INFO!
Picture Day for middle schoolers is Tuesday, October 19th. Students will receive this flyer for online ordering on Monday. If you need to send cash or a check, please have your child pick up an envelope at the greeters desk.
Robocall from Ms. Prorok 9/23/21:
Good evening, Pioneer Middle School. This is Principal Prorok. I am calling to give you details on our after school program. Transportation is getting better, but it is still an issue. We will begin after school activities on Monday, September 27 ONLY for those students who can be picked up by a parent or guardian at 3:15. Our hope is to have the program in full operation with bus transportation within the next two weeks. I will send out another robocall next week to update you.
Please be aware that today your child received a letter verifying what activities they registered for for the first quarter. Please ask them to share that with you.
Thank you for everyone's patience and flexibility as we try to have our after school program up and running at 100%. Have a great night.
Attention Middle School Students! Jr FFA begins next week, but you need to pick up a permission slip at the greeters desk and bring it back before Tuesday!
NOTE: Jr FFA is NOT part of the regular Middle School after school program. This group meets at the high school.
