Principal’s Hello<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hey, folks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we met as a staff to review the bad news about the state budget. If the levy doesn’t pass in May, this is what it means for Pacific Crest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With less money from the state and fewer kids attending PCMS next year, we’ll need to make some difficult cuts. These cuts will affect both classroom teachers as well as support staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The discretionary budget you see there is what we use for things like field trips, supplies for all our classrooms, staff conferences, and anything else not outlined by the district budget. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notice the levy signs out front and information below to learn more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks for your partnership with our new iPad and e-bike\/e-scooter policies. We’ve gotten a lot of great feedback from all of you. We’ve only been able to make these program adjustments because of your support and because of our amazing teachers and staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a great weekend with people you love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sean<\/p>\n\n\n\n
