Congratulations to the seventeen new Pine River NHS members inducted on Sunday, November 10th. We're so proud of the hard work our members put in to help others!


Good Afternoon, Please review the attached memo because we have a confirmed case of a high school 9th grade student having Pertussis, also known as Whooping Cough, which is highly contagious but treated with antibiotics. This student has not been at school since 11/6. If your child has a serious cough, please get them tested. Also keep in mind that it can take several days to weeks to develop in those who have been exposed.
Thank you and stay well,
Superintendent Gill

November is Children's Grief Awarness Month which provides us an opportunity to raise awareness about the painful impact that the death of a loved one has in the life of a child and to make sure they receive the support they need. The Pine River Area School District is working with Michael's Place to provide grief support groups for our students soon. If your child or children have been impacted by the loss of someone close to them, please let the school principal know.
The Michael's Place support group provides space and time to offer students the ability to increase healthy coping skills while reducing harmful grief reactions, improves their ability to communicate their needs to others, and normalizes grief experiences through peer support. All of these tools help to mitigate the impact of grief on academic functioning and provide life long skills.

Dear Parents, Guardians and Employees,
As we enjoy these beautiful fall days and adjust to the colder days coming this winter season, I want to remind everyone of our procedures for notifying families of school cancellations due to inclement weather. If weather conditions require us to close school, we will inform you using the following methods:
• Automated Phone Call - PLEASE BE SURE THAT YOUR CONTACT INFO IS CORRECT IN POWERSCHOOL!
• Automated Text Message - PLEASE BE SURE THAT YOUR CONTACT INFO IS CORRECT IN POWERSCHOOL!
• District Facebook Page
• Local Television – 9 & 10 News; 7 & 4 News
• We do not contact radio stations
We often send important information by email as well, so it’s imperative to make sure that your parent / guardian email address is correct on our PowerSchool system too. If you’re not sure, contact the building secretary or Linda Fullerton, Admin Assistant to the Superintendent / Board, at 231-829-3841, to verify or update it. Thank you and have a great rest of the year!
With Pride,
Michelle Gill
Superintendent
