Summer camp opportunity for current 5th-8th grade students with science teacher, Erika Fatura!
Mrs. Macher's 3rd grade class walked to Mears State Park on Monday. Park Ranger Chris Bush talked about Beach & Water Safety. They climbed Old Baldy and even witnessed a proposal (oops). Then they visited Cosmic Candy to learn about the business. It was lots of fun!
First grade walked to the new playground in town and enjoyed the morning on the new equipment!

2021 Graduation Ceremony Announcement: Due to forecasted inclement weather, we will be moving our 2021 Graduation Ceremony from the Pentwater Village Green to the school gymnasium. The date and time of the ceremony will be the same, Thursday, May 27, 2021, at 7pm. Unfortunately, with the ceremony being held inside, there are some specific restrictions to the numbers allowed in a single gathering space so we will be limiting each senior to invite no more than 6 guests each. Additionally, since we will be indoors, everyone will be required to wear a mask regardless of their vaccination status; schools still require all students, staff and visitors to wear face masks while indoors in a school building.
Again, this event will not be open to the public as we normally would be, each senior may invite up to 6 guests each.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! We are grateful that despite the circumstances, we will still be able to honor our graduating seniors with a proper ceremony!
