Throwing it back to the elementary years—before they were the principals! 📸💚
We’re celebrating National Principals Month with a look at our PCS principals when they were on the other side of the principal’s desk!
Thank you to Ms. Tutchtone, Mr. Kendall, Mrs. Jones, and Mr. Holden for leading our schools and going above and beyond each day to support our students and staff.

💚 You matter.
It’s the message at the heart of the Love Like Lexi Project, which helps students recognize their worth, find hope, and build connections as they navigate life’s challenges.
We encourage all Pelham City Schools parents to make plans to attend the Love Like Lexi Parent Assembly:
📅 Tuesday, October 20
🕡 6:30 PM
📍 Pelham Park Middle School Gym
The evening will focus on suicide prevention awareness, mental wellness, and ways parents can be a positive source of support for their children. It’s an opportunity to learn more, ask questions, and strengthen the conversations and connections that help our children feel supported.
The parent assembly is open to parents from all PCS schools, regardless of where their children attend. PPMS students will attend a separate student assembly on October 21.
Join us as we work together to help our students know they matter and have people they can turn to.

PCS ConnectED is underway!
Our first class came together last night, and the energy and engagement in the room made it a great start! Participants began by meeting others in the group and discovering connections and common ground. They also learned more about Pelham City Schools through presentations on our school system, the role of the Board of Education, and how our schools are funded.
This is what PCS ConnectED is all about: bringing people together to build connections, encourage collaboration, and gain a deeper understanding of our school system. We’re looking forward to continuing the conversation and exploring different aspects of PCS each month!
Thank you to the Pelham City Schools Foundation for sponsoring PCS ConnectED and helping make this opportunity possible. We appreciate their support of our schools and community!
