Welcome Back! Important Info for Grade 6 Families – First Day of School

Good afternoon PAMS families, 

This is Mrs. Grant, your child’s principal, with some important reminders for the first day of school.

  • Grade 6 students ONLY begin school on Tuesday, September 2nd. All other students will join on Wednesday.
  • Doors open and bus drop-off begins at 8:20 AM. Students will head to the cafeteria first, then follow their homeroom teacher to their new classroom.
  • Classes begin at 8:40 AM. The morning will focus on getting organized and learning about the school and classes. In the afternoon, students will visit the gym and meet their Music, Technology, and Wellness teachers. They will also spend time in the Wolastoqey classroom.
  • Students will be coming home with many forms to read and sign.  Please look for the PAMS parent/student handbook to learn more about the school. 
  • Please remember to bring indoor sneakers on Tuesday for Gym class.
  • Throughout September, Grade 6 students will eat lunch in their classrooms and will not have access to microwaves for food brought from home. However, hot meals ordered from the cafeteria will still be delivered directly to classrooms.  Main meals and value meals are available for $5.25.Menu A la carte 
  • Student pick-up is at 3:15 PM, after buses have departed. Parents picking their child up should line up in the bus lane, not the parking lot. Walkers and students being picked up will be dismissed once buses leave.

Our team is excited to welcome our Grade 6 students to their new school tomorrow! 

Mrs. Grant, 

Principal, PAMS
