The C2 Class at Pike Road Elementary School named Principal Jeff Hatfield a Helping Hands Hero! After completing a 10-week study on citizenship they decided Mr. Hatfield was the perfect person to honor because he embodies the traits of amazing citizens. Students from each class shared why they believe he deserves to be named the Helping Hands Hero from allowing himself to be slimed to being a "pal" to everyone (princiPAL), to keeping everyone in the school safe. Congratulations Mr. Hatfield!

📣 Pike Road Schools will follow their regular schedule tomorrow, January 17. It will be a COLD weather day, so please ensure students are dressed warmly, especially those who will be waiting at bus stops. 🧤🧣
Following a morning assessment, school is canceled today due to observed ponding in parking lots and roadways. We anticipate possible snow/freezing rain around 10:00 am, aligning with the arrival of student drivers.
All locations and offices will remain closed, prioritizing the safety of our families, faculty, and staff by encouraging everyone to stay off the roads.
Due to the potential of inclement weather in the early morning hours tomorrow, January 16, Pike Road Schools will be on a 2-hour delay.
We will use this time to check road conditions and buildings and provide faculty and staff extra time to commute from outside the Pike Road area. If the roads are considered unsafe, PRS will notify you of any school cancellation by 7:00 am.
Parents,
We are closely monitoring the weather and the impact it could have on our area. Please plan ahead for the possibility of school cancellation or delay as we ensure safe passage on our roads and bridges. We are also watching the status of faculty and staff living outside our area that may be impacted by the winter weather.
You will be alerted through email, text messages, and phone calls if any changes are made.
