Looking ahead, temperatures will not get above freezing for the next 24 hours or more. Due to the expected continued precipitation, it is likely that roads will have icy patches for awhile. Therefore, PCSSD schools and offices will not be open tomorrow (Wednesday, February 19).
February is National Children's Dental Health Month. Take time to encourage sweet and healthy smiles by instilling healthy habits like brushing twice a day and limiting sugary beverages. #pcssdproud #serveall
We apologize for the frustration from Monday’s duplicated phone calls. Please read the statement from Apptegy (our notification system provider) regarding the callouts:

Elementary schools will dismiss at 11:30 a.m. and secondary schools will dismiss at 12:30 p.m. District offices will also close at 12:30 p.m. There will not be any after school activities, including aftercare. Sack lunches will be provided for those who need lunch. PCSSD will continue to monitor the weather and will make adjustments if needed. Thank you.
