Mr. Kluemper's Agriculture classes enjoyed visiting with Pickle and Jordi (Mr. Kluemper's wife and daughter raise these cattle and Mr. Kluemper brought them here for the day). The students enjoyed learning more about beef cattle in this hands-on experience. What an experience!

The Mission of the Pike County School Corporation is to provide all students with a quality education that encourages them to become successful citizens. With that in mind, the PCSC Board of Trustees voted to modify our Covid-19 policies, to take effect October 4, 2021. A letter from PCSC is pictured below and provides a brief overview of these changes. All info is available at https://www.pcsc.k12.in.us/page/covid-19

The PCHS Auditorium stage floor is undergoing a much needed update while the Pool project is hurtling toward completion. We can’t wait to see all of the impressive things our Chargers will continue to do in these facilities!
COVID-19 POLICY UPDATE (9/15/21): The following changes will be implemented through September 30, 2021.
•Masks will be optional for all PCSC staff and students.
•Contact tracing will be completed at 3 ft.
•Individuals identified as close contacts will need to quarantine, but options for early return will continue to be available.
•Enhanced Precautions will NOT be required for early returns.
Effective Monday, Aug 30, masks will be required at all schools in the Pike County School Corporation for the next two weeks. This applies to all staff, students, and visitors regardless of vaccination or immunity status. Face shields, gators or masks are acceptable as they were last year. Masks will not be worn when students are physically active, such as during recess, PE or athletic practices or events.
By issuing the mask requirement, this will also allow us to conduct contact tracing at 3 ft during times that masks are worn. When masks are not worn, contact tracing will remain at a distance of 6 ft. This adjustment should reduce the number of individuals that will be quarantined and increase the number of students able to remain in the classroom.
PCHS and PCMS will resume a regular schedule on Monday, Aug 30th.
We will continue to monitor our data and review options that will best serve our students and staff during the coming weeks.
Custodian and Cafeteria Vacancies
IMPORTANT PCMS & PCHS Families:
Due to the rapidly increasing cases of Covid-19 at the MS & HS, all students in grades 6-12 will have eLearning days from August 24-27.
Students should log in to their classes and make contact with their classroom teachers during their regularly scheduled class period each day.
Students who need to pick up devices or textbooks may do so between the hours of 8:30 am - 3:00 pm each day at their building.
Teachers and classroom assistants are expected to report to their buildings at their regular time.
Students at PES and WES will attend school on regular hours for the remainder of the week.
FOOD SERVICE MESSAGE: Please check our web menus daily for the most accurate menu for your building's cafeteria. Please be aware that recent and future changes to our menus are caused by vendor difficulties due to shortages and shipping issues. Our meals must be balanced to meet USDA criteria for nutrition, calorie count, and sodium. If an item within our order is suddenly cancelled, we immediately begin working to reorganize the meal and update our website menus. We apologize for the inconvenience, which we hope is short-lived.
