(10/1): Students in Ms. Swain’s sixth-grade science classes wrapped up their study of the forces of flight by putting their learning to the test with paper airplanes! After learning how lift, weight, thrust, and drag work together to make flight possible, students designed and flew their own paper airplanes to see these forces in action.
It was a fun, hands-on way to finish the unit and turn science concepts into something students could actually see, test, and experience. Sometimes science really is just an excellent excuse to throw paper airplanes in class!

PCSD librarians Ms. Cassie Harrison, Mrs. Kristy Dowdy, Mrs. Kourtney Mathews, Ms. Gina Bramlitt, and Mrs. Camille Rodgers attended the LAMP workshop and participated in a day of professional learning focused on strengthening library services and supporting student learning. Sessions included Mississippi Forestry Commission resources, primary sources, connecting ELA and Social Studies, project-based learning with Mississippi History Day, Magnolia Book Awards, and mastering the Mississippi Annual School Library Report. These sessions provided valuable ideas and resources to bring back to the PCSD libraries and continue creating engaging learning opportunities for our students.

(9/30): PMS PTO provided lunch for teachers and staff. The grilled hamburgers, baked beans, chips and cookies were delicious. We appreciate all that you do!
