The summer slide is real and students can lose more than 2.5 months of math skills, 2 months of reading skills, and multiple grade levels of abilities without putting what they have learned this list year to practice. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
Registration is still open! Families with students returning to Joe T. Robinson Middle must register. Registration information can be found online at pcssd.org/register. If you have questions, please contact Darlene Smith at dsmith2862@pcssd.org.
Many students have already closed their books and won't open them again until school is back in session. This puts kids at risk of falling behind and lower standardized test scores. We will provide facts and tips to avoid the summer slide here. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
Superintendent Dr. Charles McNulty and Shawn Burgess, assistant superintendent for human resources, discuss what it will look like for PCSSD to reopen for students in fall 2020.

Dear Band Families,
In preparation for instrument inspection and inventory, PCSSD has scheduled district-owned instruments to be returned to the school buildings on Monday, May 4, and Tuesday, May 5. Both high school and middle school students will return their district-owned instrument to Robinson Middle School. I will be at RMS to collect instruments between 9:00am - 3:00pm. Let me know if your family requires an alternative time. We will be practicing social distancing and safety measures during instrument return.
Instrument inspection is crucial because this is how we determine what repairs need to be made in order to keep your child's district-owned instrument in good playing condition. If you were unable to pick-up your child's personally owned instrument on April 13, you may do so during this time.
Thank you!
RMS Families,
Please remind your child to fill out the survey placed in Senator Scroll. This survey will help us better prepare for Locker Pick Up Days. If your child wants to fill out the link and does not have access to Senator Scroll for any reason, I have attached the link at the bottom of this email. Thank you!

Dress code will be strictly enforced. The performance is free and open to the public.
If acquiring black clothes/shoes or transporting your child after the event is a hardship, please, let me know. We are here to help in anyway we can. We are glad to help with clothing, transportation, or whatever supports your family or student may need in order to fully participate. Nobody in the Robinson Bands gets left behind because of money or logistics. Simply, communicate your needs.
We will be performing Marchus Maximus (Michael Story), Armory (Randall Standridge), and Night Fury (Carol Chambers). Encourage your student to focus in class and practice at home.

Why Attendance is Important in Helping Every Student Succeed?
One of the most important things your child can do to reach the goal of success is also one of the most basic: attend school every day on time! By attending class regularly, your child is more likely to keep up with daily lessons and assignments and take quizzes and tests on time. Research has shown that your child's regular attendance may be the greatest factor influencing his/her academic success.
Achievement: Students who attend school regularly are more likely to pass
reading and math assessments than students who do not.
Opportunity: For older students, being in school every day gives them a chance to learn more about college and scholarship opportunities and to learn the important information to build a successful academic record.
Exposure to the English language: Regular school attendance can also help students who are learning English by giving them the opportunity to master the skills and information they need more quickly and accurately.
Being part of the school community: Just by being present at school, your child is learning how to be a good citizen by participating in the school community, learning valuable social skills, and developing a broader world view.
What parents can do:
Follow the school's guidelines and attendance policy and report excused absences immediately. Reviews the school's rules and make sure you understand who you need to contact if your child is going to be absent.
Take an active role. Stay involved with your child's daily experiences at school by asking how the school day went, and then listening carefully to what your child shares with you — both the successes and struggles. Make it a point to meet your child's teacher(s) and friends.
Keep updated on school events and announcements. Read the school documents that your child brings home and
Try to limit the amount of time that your child misses school due to medical appointments or illness. If possible, avoid scheduling doctor's appointments during the school day. Allow your child to stay home only in the case of contagious or severe illnesses.
Schedule family events with your child's school schedule in mind. Plan holiday celebrations or family trips during weekends or school vacations. In the case of family emergencies or unexpected trips, talk to your child's teacher(s) as far in advance as possible and set up a way that your child can work ahead or bring important homework on the trip.
