On behalf of the Social Studies department, We would like to thank all of you who were able to join our program last week. This year we presented "I, Too, Sing America, by Langston Hughes. Our students celebrated their interpretation of this poem through dramatic monologues, artwork, and music. If you weren't able to join us you missed a tremendously talented group of students. We had so many great projects that were turned in by our students that we could not select them all. We even had students that submitted work in the hours up to our program. Because of this remarkable response, we wanted to displace some things that we were unable to share on Thursday. Please take a look at the attached document and enjoy the work of our outstanding scholars. Thank you again for your continued support.

Dear Parents/Guardians, Yes, Saturday Academy is still taking place. We have two sessions like in previous years for you to select from 9:00 AM-10:30 AM and 11:00 AM-12:30 AM. Of course, you can choose both sessions. Saturday Academy will function similarly to the past with me as your child’s guide. The link that I have provided is for me to sign your child in and then send them to whichever specified session(s) through breakouts. Again, we looked forward to helping your child/children to receive additional support. https://pgcps-org.zoom.us/j/92857077828?pwd=VU1EVHRmRjI4MlEyRVNZTkN1cVBaQT09 Should you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Sincerely,
