NEW RETURN BIN!
Do you have library book or other school item that need to be returned to school?
Now you can drop it off anytime in front of the elementary building. Just open the lid, put your materials in there, and shut the lid. We will empty this every night. Thanks for your help!


Congratulations to our Pine River Class Of 2020!

An update for our Class of 2020:
(This was emailed to all seniors, but in case you missed it...)
Senior Communication Letter - March 31, 2020
Greetings Seniors:
This an update for SENIORS only. We all understand the stress of not knowing what may happen in your remaining time here at PR. However, please note we are working diligently to get as many answers as possible. Mrs. Curtis and I are reviewing the credits for the seniors. She will be obtaining the credit audits on Friday, April 3, 2020 and reviewing them this weekend. Between myself, Mrs. Curtis, Ms. Miltgen, and Mrs. Lockhart, we will be contacting those students who need to recover credits, complete an extra class for credit, or are possibly short on credits. If you are not sure if you fall into one of the above mentioned categories, email me and Mrs. Curtis. I am working with Mr. Rigling from CTC to address the credit situation for CTC. If Mrs. Curtis or I have not contacted you by early next week, it means you are in good standing to graduate on time. It is our intent to make sure all seniors graduate and move on with life. When we get more answers and a definitive timeline, we will communicate with more detail.
Scholarship applications are still being accepted. Please email Ms. Miltgen with any questions.
As of now, no decision has been made about prom or graduation. When we have a plan in place, we will let you know. At this moment, please continue to check your email regularly.
Please stay safe and take care of yourself.
Thanks,
Mr. Ruppert

Parents: please check your email for an important survey from Pine River Area Schools. Thank you!
