Imagine the nerve of our kindergartners, Coach Allen and Coach VonGunden for taking a nature walk on this beautiful day. Honestly, we can't blame them and we wish they had asked us to go! #PrideInTheHive

When you walk into a classroom during free reading time and there's absolute silence...that's when you know students are loving the book they're reading. #PrideInTheHive

It can't possibly be a bad day when you start with high-fives from Principal Gilsinan! #PrideInTheHive

We love it when members of the PCS alumni join forces! Maddie (Naschke) Navarra, Class of 2019, is currently completing her student-teaching at Warsaw Elementary School with Guy Macaluso, Class of 1985 and the instrumental music teacher at WES. Maddie earned her undergraduate degree from SUNY Geneseo and is pursuing a master's degree from Nazareth University. #PrideInTheHive #PCSDfamily

There's nothing, and we mean nothing, better than an old-school flash card war.
You know what we're talking about...the adrenaline, the anticipation, the panic. Props to Mrs. Ferro's 4th graders for being fierce competitors. #PrideInTheHive

Elementary students playing a flash card game.

For those of us old enough to remember September 11, 2001, we sometimes forget that there is an entire generation that wasn’t born yet or are too young to remember that day. That’s why, as we reflect on those tragic events, it’s important that we stop to help our students understand the significance of that moment in time.
This morning, Mrs. Reagan and her 3rd graders had a great discussion about September 11 while reading the book “Survivor Tree” by Marcie Colleen. The book highlights the Callery pear tree that stood near the World Trade Center and was nearly destroyed on that faithful day. The tree was rescued by workers, nursed back to health, and now stands as a symbol of perseverance at the 9/11 Memorial. #PrideInTheHive #NeverForget

We love the sentiment that 8th grader Acadia Wilcox is putting into her first art project of the school year. Ms. Hankey, JH art teacher, asked her students to create a clay vessel that could hold something they love. Acadia immediately thought of her favorite person – her grandmother. The finished product will have the inscription “Made with Love” carved into it and allow enough space for sweet treats (and recipes) to be passed back and forth between the two of them. #PrideInTheHive

As educators, seeing our students excited about a book or reading in general makes us smile. So, you can imagine our joy when a group of high school students clamored into the HS Library this morning to meet author Julie Berry. The New York Times bestselling author and Medina native hosted a school-wide assembly at PHS to discuss her upcoming book “If Looks Could Kill” and invited students back to the library for further conversations and a book signing.

Berry was invited to PHS by Mrs. Peace, HS Library Media Specialist. She will be hosting a launch celebration this evening at Act 4 Books in Perry from 6:00-7:00 pm, which students and community members are invited to attend. Thanks to the generosity of the Act 4 Community for defraying the cost of the book for our students. #PrideInTheHive

Mrs. Emerson's HS Ceramics students are wasting no time getting their hands dirty. For their first project, students are writing proposals for creating clay vessels using three common techniques. The creations will be finished by the end of the week. We love seeing our students jumping right into the new school year! #PrideInTheHive
