All Pine River Area Schools offices will be closed during winter break (the afternoon of December 21st through January 2nd). We wish you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, safe travels, and meaningful time with family and friends.


Many thanks to the Cadillac News and Lake-Osceola State Bank for granting our wish of more snack foods for our students! Many PR students are not able to go home for dinner before evening events so this will help ease their hunger. Happy Holidays!


Last Call...Our lost and found racks at each school are overflowing! Anything not picked up today or tomorrow will be donated after school tomorrow, Thursday, December 21st.
Happy Holidays!

Fall Sports Report


This is a test.

Ms Miltgen and Mrs Lockhart along with OYAC members and some NHS members shopped for 18 children yesterday. They tackled Christmas lists of wants and needs, along with some fun things for each child. Thank you to all who have helped donate either money or gifts to help complete these lists, making Christmas brighter for others.

Elementary Principal Mrs. Heidi Hayes, MEMSPA Region 13 Principal of the Year, was celebrated today at the elementary school with the high school drumline and band congratulating her and thanking her for all she does. Well done Mrs. Hayes!


Superintendent Gill popped over to the Elementary today to check out the "wax museum" event. Wow, very impressive! Students chose a character, dressed as the character and confidently described the character's life. I met over a dozen famous characters including Abraham Lincoln, Barak Obama, Jacque Cousteau, Oprah Winfrey, Rosa Parks, Steve Irwin, Jane Goodall, Clara Barton and many more. Some students memorized their information while others read it and they made their own posterboards describing their character. Well done students!


Hello PR families,
We are very excited about our annual Christmas Concert this afternoon. The dress rehearsal went EXTREMELY well this morning. The kids are ready and excited!
A couple LAST minute IMPORTANT reminders:
Student Drop off will be between 5:30 - 5:50pm.
Concert will start at 6:00pm!
Pick up your child from their assigned room after the concert has concluded.
Parking will be tight. Carpool if possible. Parking will be open in the front and back of the MS/HS.
Hope to see you all there!
Thanks
Mr. DeVos

Saturday, Pine River Middle School held a special Art Club for a select group of students tasked by Mr. Gill with making holiday art for tonight's Elementary Winter Program. Great job everyone!








On Thursday and Friday, Pine River NHS and NJHS members helped get Project Christmas at the Wex set up and ready for today's event. Our kids unloaded, sorted, unpacked, moved, packed, organized, and more. They worked hard and their help for the community was so appreciated!
