Culinary Crusaders’ spring groups have been busy! So far, they’ve learned how to make homemade pasta and practiced their measuring and knife skills making Turkey Veggie Wraps and No Bake Cookie Dough Balls! 🍝🥗🍪
Students in Mrs. Taylor’s class had a little fun by doing the opposite of what we normally practice. Students worked in groups to create the worst arguments possible. They had to include weak evidence, emotional reasoning, confusing claims, and logical fallacies. It was hilarious and served as a great review! ✏️
PGM FFA members enjoyed kicking off their Moo Mail Exchange Project with PGE classes! Members are writing to PGE classes about FFA and agriculture. Mrs. Dye's, Mrs. Mac's, and Mrs. Stubbs' classes enjoyed receiving and reading their first mail! 🐄✉️
Our 6th Grade Military Club members had an amazing trip to Macon! First, they attended the STEM School Game with the Macon Mayhem — an exciting way to see science in action through the fast-paced world of hockey. 🏒 Then, they explored history firsthand with a hike at Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park, learning about the rich cultural heritage preserved right in our own state. It was a fun and memorable way to combine science and history all in one incredible day! #STEM
PGM wrapped up Black History Month with history, heart, and some seriously good food! 🌍✨
On Friday, our EPIC students teamed up with students from grade level social studies classes to present posters on famous Black Americans. It was a powerful display of collaboration, creativity, and community! A huge thank you to Lion of Judah for sharing your delicious Ethiopian dishes and stories, and to Mrs. McEady and Mrs. Miley for leading the celebration! 🥘🇪🇹 #BlackHistoryMonth

Last week, 8th grader Cooper Blocher represented PGM and Lowndes County Schools at the 2026 All-State Chorus in Athens, GA! 🎶
The All State Chorus process calls students from all corners of Georgia to participate in two rigorous rounds of auditions. After passing both auditions and earning a perfect score on his second evaluation, Cooper was invited to participate in the 3-day event with about 150 other middle school tenors and basses - for the second consecutive year!
Mr. Young is incredibly proud of Cooper’s dedication, musicianship, and his representation of PGM and the choral program! Congratulations, Cooper! 🎶
Pine Grove Middle School TOOK OFF this week to visit Moody AFB for the S.O.A.R. (Saluting Our Aviation Roots) program! The students interacted with airmen, geared up and hopped into vehicles, and watched a pararescue demo and flyovers. The program was an amazing hands-on way to learn about aviation, the military, and STEM careers. Thank you #MoodyAFB! #SOAR #STEM
Our math team has done it again! They brought home the 1st place team award and the 1st place individual award (Elijah) at the 3rd Annual Dale Graham Math Tournament in Thomasville! ➕➖✖️➗ #STEM
Physical science students used Slinkies to investigate the anatomy of transverse and longitudinal waves! This helped them visualize the relationships between frequency, amplitude, and wavelength. #STEM

We loved bringing our Sources of Strength campaign to STEM Career Day! ⚓
With the theme “SAIL to the FUTURE using your STRENGTHS,” students wrote a personal strength on paper chains that we linked together to create a giant sail for our Viking ship — showing that we move forward stronger together. Participants also received a compass as a reminder to stay on course and follow their strengths. 🧭
#SailToTheFuture #SourcesOfStrength
PGM Y-LEAD members attended a Rotary luncheon yesterday at Rainwater Conference Center where they engaged with community leaders, including Lowndes County Tax Commissioner Clay Guess, and took part in the meeting's formal proceedings. #FutureLeaders
