Temperatures may still be in the 90s, but we're loving football in the fall! Week 3 kicks off at 7pm with three PCSSD high school games. Good luck to all of our student-athletes! #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence


Dear Parents & Guardians,
Our ZAP -ICU Database serves a dual purpose. We want parents to know what work the scholars are missing and we work to ensure they get it turned in. Zeros are not the answer. We look to hold students accountable to turn in the work before engaging in extracurricular activities like sports and clubs.
STAKEHOLDER NOTIFICATIONS
When a teacher puts a student's missing assignment on the ICU list, parents are automatically texted and emailed a notification of the missing assignment. The email includes any specified comments or attachments from the teacher.
The ICU Database has been the 'game changer' for getting everyone on board. The response from parents and students has been amazing. The assignments have been rolling in.
ARKANSAS PRINCIPAL
Communication is not only between the teachers and the students, but also between coaches, administration, and most importantly the parents. It’s a chance to address academic issues quickly and in a timely manner so that other educational gaps do not arise.

September is Better Breakfast Month. Eating breakfast can help you focus and concentrate in class to learn your best. It can be hard to learn while your tummy is grumbling. PCSSD is proud to offer breakfast at all of our schools. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence


Update 3pm - Mills University Studies HS has been given the “all clear” by law enforcement. No legitimacy to the alleged bomb threat. Students and staff have safely returned back to class. Thank you for your patience.

Update at 2:30pm - Mills University Studies HA is still evacuated and students are in a safe location away from the building. No one is allowed on or off campus at this time.
