This is your principal, Mr. Pelka. The first day of school is Thursday, August 24. Bus schedules were mailed last week. Please call the transportation department at 342-1050 extension 3111 with any questions. Arrival and dismissal procedures have not changed. Parent drop off is on the office side of the building between 7:30 and 7:50A.M. Parent pick up is in front of the building, typically around 2:30pm. A reminder, lunch and breakfasts are free this school year. Students will be charged for extras.

I wanted to let parents and students know our school handbook is posted on the MS webpage, scroll down and find the tab "Links". I specifically wanted to bring your attention to our student dress code and cell phone policy. Cell phones, ear buds and smart devices must be locked up during the instructional day. We will provide a lock free of charge. The dress code will also be enforced. Students should dress in an appropriate manner while in their educational setting. Finally, all students should have clear or mesh backpacks.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at the middle school. Ms. Bravin and I are looking forward to a great school year at POMS!
