Winter Concert for 4th and 5th grade at the High School 12/17/2024 @ 6:30pm.


PRCS Holiday Spirit Week.


Due to the power outage in Pittston, there will be a 2 hour delay to the start of school today at PRCS only. There is no set time yet for power to be restored, so I’m going to start with a two hour delay and reassess as necessary. All other MSAD 11 Schools are open and will begin on time. For PRCS parents who have children in the Pre-K AM program at the Laura E Richards School, if you have transportation, you are welcome to take them to school for an 8:30 am start. If you do not receive another update from me, plan on the 2 hour delay. If it appears that power will not be restored this morning and a cancellation is necessary, another message will be sent to you no later than 9:15 am. Thank you. Hope you stay warm.

Good morning again. Unfortunately, the temperature is still too low to make it safe to drive or walk to school. The roads and walkways are very icy, and because it’s so cold, the salt isn’t melting the ice. Because of this, today will be a remote learning day in MSAD11. Your child’s teacher and principal have already shared details about remote learning. If you have any questions, please email your child’s teacher or principal. The Central Office will open at noon today.

There will be a 2 hour delay to the start of school in MSAD11 today, no AM pre-k, and the Central Office will open at 9 am. The roads are very icy this morning. If road conditions do not improve by 7:00 am, it will be necessary to make today a remote day. Should that happen, you will receive another message around 7:15 am. Thank you, drive safe and enjoy your day.

Dear Families,
Stormy, winter days are right around the corner! The District is planning to have a remote snow day, if possible, to help us avoid making up a day of school. This will only happen if a storm doesn’t look like it will take out a lot of power or the internet and can be planned ahead of the storm. Superintendent Pat Hopkins will communicate with families if a remote day will happen.
The plan for our PreK-5 students:
• Lunches will be sent home with students before a remote storm day. Please complete this form to let us know if you would like to have your child receive a school lunch to take home or not. If you have already done so, please disregard this second notice.
• A learning packet will also be sent home with students before a remote storm day. It will contain a literacy activity, a math activity, and an activity choice from art, music, or PE. These are meant for practicing skills that students have been learning in the classroom. No new learning is expected to happen on a remote day. Please return learning packets to school for teachers to check.
•Teachers will communicate office hours in case parents have any questions about the learning activities that were sent home. This time is not for classroom instruction.
Let’s hope that Mother Nature takes it easy on us this year! If you have any questions, please reach out to me or your child’s teacher.
Mrs. Cockrell, Principal

MSAD11 Cell Phone Committee Meeting 11/20/2024: https://youtube.com/live/EvBnocB8PWg?feature=share

Good afternoon, this is Pat Hopkins, MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools. I want to inform you that the community safety concern that prompted the lock-in procedures at all our schools has been fully resolved. As a result, the lock-in has been lifted, and all schools have returned to their regular schedules. I appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time, as the safety of our school community remains our highest priority. Enjoy the remainder of your day.

Good morning, this is Pat Hopkins, MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools. Due to a known safety concern within the community, all schools are not permitting anyone entrance into our school buildings. Students and staff are able to walk freely throughout the building as the safety concern is not directed at the school, but within our community. This is only being done as a precautionary measure. No threat has been made against any student, staff, or school building. As soon as we are notified that the safety concern has been addressed, the ‘lock in’ will be lifted and families will be notified. Thank you for your understanding.
