Pontotoc Middle School Home

(9/9): Progress Reports go home with PMS students today.

(9/9): Pontotoc City School District is now contacting parents/guardians when a student reaches 3 or more absences. These communications are intended to provide attendance reminders, support families, and help prevent chronic absenteeism.
Please review the attached Family Guide to Understanding Mississippi Attendance Laws for important information about attendance requirements, referrals, and interventions for the 2026–2027 school year.

(9/8): Sixth-grade Science students put Newton’s Laws into motion by designing cars with safety features to protect a real egg during a trip down a ramp—and straight into a brick wall! With limited supplies and time, students had to think fast, build smart, and hope their passengers didn’t crack under pressure. It was an egg-citing lesson in force, motion, and engineering! Stay tuned for statistics of cracked eggs!

(9/4): Congrats to these Warriors! They were recognized for their positive characteristics this week.

(9/3): This past week in science we used lab experiments to help them understand how to classify matter! We learned about the transitions between solid, liquid, and ice using water in its many different forms. Next, we used several random items to test if the objects were electrical and thermal conductors, magnetic, and reflective. Finally, everyone channeled their inner Bill Nye scientist brain to name unknown (to the students) substances using color, texture, particle size, and its solubility.
