OH DEER!
(2/25): Things got wild in 6th Grade Science during our introduction to ecology with the classic “Oh Deer!” activity!
Half the class became deer, and the other half became basic needs—food, water, or shelter. Without tipping anyone off, both sides secretly chose their signs. When the teacher yelled “GO!” it was an all-out scramble to match up.
If a deer didn’t find what it needed… well… nature took its course. 💀 But don’t worry—they became compost and re-entered the ecosystem as a need for the next “year.”
After several fast-paced rounds, students graphed the dramatic ups and downs of the deer population. Let’s just say—there were population booms, busts, and a lot of very competitive wildlife.
Ecology has never been so energetic!

Ag Episode 12: PMS Has an AMAZING Maintenance Teams
(2/25): After the recent ice storm, our 6th Grade Agriculture students were disappointed to find that their chicken pen had been severely damaged by large falling limbs from the tree overhead. What could have been a major setback quickly turned into a powerful example of teamwork and support.
Pontotoc Middle School’s maintenance team stepped in right away, removing the massive dead limbs and making necessary repairs to the pen. Thanks to their hard work, the structure is now safe and secure — and our students no longer have to crawl inside to care for their chickens.
We are incredibly grateful for a maintenance team that not only fixes problems but supports our students’ learning experiences. Their quick response ensured that our agriculture program can continue safely, and our chickens are once again well cared for.
