Pinkston celebrated the 20th American Graffiti Day today in a culminating activity for reading the novel "The Outsiders " by SE Hinton. The students participated in activities around the 1960s, dressed up, hosted/listened to a concert of music from the 60s, participated in activities from the era, and viewed a car show.
Thank you to all of the parents, volunteers, faculty, and car owners for making this day a memorable experience!

Attention home school/private school parents/guardians:
****A message from Mrs. Dewey****
Parents/Guardians,
I told you last month that we had additional plans coming for ways to address school safety, student social media use, etc. One of these plans is an upcoming expert speaker who will share with local parents and guardians about the risks of social media for children.
This presentation will take place on Monday, November 11 from 6-7:30 p.m. in Dunbar Auditorium.
Due to the nature of some of the content, children will not be allowed in the presentation, but I am grateful to the MHPTO group for agreeing to provide onsite childcare during this event for those who need it. This presentation is tiered as far as ages go, so parents with children of any age will find it beneficial.
Thanks again to the MHPTO for helping us secure this speaker and for supporting our families in need of childcare during the event.
Allyson Dewey
Superintendent
This is a FANTASTIC opportunity for parent/guardian education -- especially in light of recent social media issues in our area and across the country. Keep in mind, this presentation is for parents/guardians/adult community members only, as there will be explanations of content that might not be suitable for children.
