Due to continued winter weather creating hazardous road conditions across the county, there will be no school tomorrow, February 20.
Because of this, the optional teacher workday that was scheduled for March 7 will now be an in-person school day for students.
Stay safe and enjoy the snow!

A panel of individuals from our school system and our community will be present to answer any questions you might have about current substance abuse trends in our community or provide any resources you may need. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain vital knowledge to
help protect our youth.
Person County Schools will be presenting "Parenting with Eyes Wide Open," covering the topic of Drugs in our Community on Tuesday, February 25 from 6 - 7 p.m. in the Northern Middle School Auditorium.

Senior ads are on sale now! The deadline to order is February 28 and the deadline to have your ad finished is March 14.
We are doing things a little differently this year. You will now be ordering your ads through Strawbridge directly. From there you can choose to create the ad yourself using their platform or you can create an ad outside of their platform and upload it. Either way, we will not be offering to create ads for you. You can place your order here: https://store.plicbooks.com/projects/114c5242-c95b-4f17-9d1d-e88c037eae6a
If you choose to create your ad on Strawbridge's platform, which is probably the easiest option, they have a tutorial you can follow here: https://iqplsupport.com/en/articles/5163454-plic-books-designing-your-ad
If you decide you want to create one outside of the portal, using Canva is a great option as well. You can see this video tutorial that shows how you can create an ad using Canva here: Canva Tutotial for Creating Senior Ads
