📚 PCMS AFTER-SCHOOL TUTORING 📚

Attention, PCMS Families! ❤️🤍💙

Interest sheets for after-school tutoring will be coming home with students this evening! Please be on the lookout for these forms and take a few moments to review and return them if your child is interested in participating.

✨ Why is after-school tutoring important?
Tutoring provides students with extra time and support to:
✅ Strengthen skills in Math, ELA, and other subject areas.
✅ Receive additional help with challenging concepts.
✅ Complete missing assignments and improve academic performance.
✅ Build confidence and develop stronger study habits.
✅ Prepare for upcoming assessments and reach their academic goals!

At Pleasants County Middle School, we want every student to have the opportunity to succeed! After-school tutoring is a great way to provide additional support, reinforce classroom learning, and help students reach their full potential. 💪📖

We encourage families to take advantage of this opportunity to support their child's academic growth!

Tutoring will be held on each Tuesday and Thursday from 3:45 p.m.-4:45 p.m.
Tutoring will begin on Thursday, November 5th! You may also discuss this opportunity with your child's teacher(s) at the upcoming parent-teacher conferences!

Thank you for your continued support of PCMS and our Minutemen!

The flyer is a colorful, portrait-style poster promoting after-school tutoring at Pleasants County Middle School (PCMS). It features the school’s colors—red, white, and navy blue—with large, bold lettering and school-themed illustrations. At the top, the flyer reads “PCMS After-School Tutoring” and announces that interest sheets will be coming home with students soon. An illustration of a stack of books labeled “Learn,” “Grow,” and “Succeed,” along with a cup of pencils, reinforces the educational theme. The flyer addresses PCMS families and explains that after-school tutoring provides students with opportunities to: - Strengthen skills in Math, English Language Arts (ELA), and other subjects. - Receive extra help with challenging concepts. - Complete missing assignments and improve academic performance. - Build confidence and develop stronger study habits. - Prepare for upcoming assessments and reach academic goals. The flyer encourages families to watch for the interest sheets, review them, and return them if their child is interested in participating. Near the bottom, the flyer emphasizes that PCMS wants every student to have the opportunity to succeed. A Minutemen-themed illustration and the school name appear in a navy blue banner, alongside the encouraging message: “Together we make a difference!” The overall message is that after-school tutoring is a valuable opportunity for students to receive additional academic support, strengthen their skills, and work toward success.
📣 ATTENTION, PCMS PARENTS! ❤️🤍💙

Please be on the lookout Friday, October 16th, for the following items coming home with your students:

📄 1st Nine Weeks Report Card
📝 Parent-Teacher Conference Forms
💻 Cyberswat Opt-Out Form

Please take a few moments to review the items with your child and complete or return any necessary forms to the school.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership! Together, we make PCMS a great place to learn and grow! ❤️💙

Recognizing Mrs. VanZile, Counselor at PCMS for a Staff Recognition!
6 days ago, Eric Croasmun
I would like to recognize Mrs. VanZile because she is an amazing example of what qualities a staff member should have. She’s kindhearted, caring, and actually takes time to make every student feel safe and included. She goes out of her way to support her school, and she does a lot behind the scenes that isn’t always seen. She has impacted my life with so much positivity, and I will never forget all that she’s done for me.  -Submitted by a student.
