No School for Students on Monday, February 16, in observance of Presidents' Day! Enjoy your three-day weekend!
This weekend is School Resource Officer Appreciation Day! 🛡️ We are so incredibly thankful for Deputy Eric Skipper and everything he does for our students and staff at Pike Road Intermediate School. Thank you for keeping our halls safe and our smiles bright!
Pike Road community, let’s walk! Join students and staff on Feb 12 @ 4:00 PM (GW Campus Bus Loop) as we highlight the dangers of excessive energy drink consumption.
We’re walking 8 laps to represent the 8 gallons of energy drinks consumed per person each year.
Come for the cause, stay for the yard games, music, and snacks!

Patriot Families,
Due to potential icy conditions, we will delay the start of school by 2 hours tomorrow morning. We are mindful of our staff and faculty who commute from outside of the area, and the safety of our young drivers traveling in these conditions. We encourage parents to use their best discretion based on the conditions in their specific area.
Buses will run 2 hours later than usual, and schools will open 2 hours after their regular start time. Please note that breakfast will not be served.
