This week marks National Teacher Appreciation Week, and I want to take a moment to give a huge shout-out to the phenomenal staff here at Prescott Intermediate School. Our educators and support staff go above and beyond every single day, pouring their hearts, creativity, and energy into making PIS a place where every student can thrive. We are incredibly lucky to have such a passionate team dedicated to your children’s growth, and I hope you’ll join me in showering them with gratitude this week for all the "extra miles" they travel!
As the blossoms bloom and the days grow longer, it’s clear that the end of another wonderful school year is officially in sight! We want to extend our deepest gratitude to all of our families for your incredible partnership and volunteerism this year. Whether you spent time in the classroom, assisted with MPC events, or supported your student’s learning from home, your dedication has been the backbone of our success.
To ensure we finish the year strong, please keep the following important dates on your radar:
Tuesday, May 5: Grade 4 Field Trip: Students head to Mann Valley Farm and Magee Park tomorrow!
Wednesday, May 27: Grade 5 Field Trip: 5th Graders explore the beauty of Willow River. Permission Form

Together WE Make THE Differences at Prescott Intermediate!
As we head into the final stretch of the school year, we want to finish strong by reinforcing the habits that lead to student success. Please remember that the PIS warning bell rings at 7:50 AM, and students are expected to be at their desks, ready to learn, by the official start of the day at 7:55 AM.
Arriving on time is a critical component of finishing the year with momentum for several reasons:
Academic Momentum: The first few minutes of class are vital for setting the day's objectives. Missing this "launch" often leads to immediate stress and the overwhelming feeling of being behind before the first lesson even begins, creating unnecessary gaps in understanding.
Building Responsibility: Consistent punctuality fosters time-management skills that will serve students well as they transition to higher grade levels.
Classroom Community: When students arrive on time, they have the space to connect with peers and teachers, strengthening the friendships and respect that make our school environment thrive.
Thank you for your continued partnership in ensuring your child arrives with enough time to settle in and start their day with confidence. Let’s work together to make these final months the most productive yet!
