The graduation day on May 17, 2024, was bittersweet for students, parents, and staff. It was a poignant moment as we celebrated the accomplishments of the students, but also bid farewell to a chapter in our lives. There were tears of joy and sadness as we said goodbye to friends and mentors, but we also felt excited for the future. It was a day filled with mixed emotions and unforgettable memories.

The Class of 2024 had an epic staff vs. student game for the 8th-grade class, and the students, coached by Ms. Bickerstaff, emerged victorious with a score of 40-18. Better luck next year, staff!

As the school year comes to a close, Dr. Kimbrough made sure to create lasting memories with her students on their 8th-grade boat trip. Laughter filled the air as they cruised along the water, enjoying the beautiful scenery and each other's company. It was a bittersweet moment, but one that Dr. Kimbrough and her students will cherish forever. Here's to new beginnings and wonderful memories!

The PPS team at Rickover created hygiene bags for students, filled with essential items like toothpaste, shampoo, and soap. They assembled the bags, and distributed them to students. It's heartwarming to see staff come together to support students in such a practical and meaningful way

.Parent-teacher conferences are a great opportunity for parents to meet with their child's teacher and discuss their progress in school. These meetings can provide valuable insights into a child's academic performance, social skills, and overall well-being. It's important for parents to come prepared with questions and concerns so they can make the most of their time with the teacher. By working together, parents and teachers can help students succeed and reach their full potential. Thursdays Time(3:30pm-6:30pm) Fridays Time(8:30am-11:30am)
