This week, a group of PGM students toured Wiregrass Technical College to explore their programs, career pathways, and dual enrollment opportunities available to them in high school.
Experiences like this help students see opportunities they may have never considered before. We’re excited to help them dream big about their futures! ⭐️
Peering into the science of sight—8th grade physical science students explored lenses by dissecting cow eyes! 👀🐄🔍 #STEM
Mrs. Herman and Mrs. Hopkins' classes combined for a few creative activities to wrap up the school year! They wrote collaborative stories by tossing paper snowballs and adding lines to the paper they picked up, lobbied for others to join their position on silly arguments, and wrote favorite memories from the school year on paper airplanes they launched into the future! ✏️⚖️✈️
☀️📚 PGM Summer Reading Challenge! 📚☀️
We invite all students attending PGM next year to participate in our summer reading challenge! It is a great way to motivate yourself to keep reading over the summer. Log your minutes on Beanstack, or use the paper log linked below. Printed copies are available in the media center if you need one. See the graphic for more details!
Remember that SORA is a great way to access eBooks and audiobooks over the summer, and our local public library is awesome. Email Mrs. Hamel if you have any questions!
