Pierce Middle School will conduct the Indiana Youth Survey on Friday, October 4th during SRT. This survey is completely anonymous. We would like to encourage all students to complete the survey. The survey results will be returned to Pierce admin team to consider programs and/ or activities to assist our students in making good decisions.

Parents have the right to opt out and choose NOT to have their student complete the survey. The link to opt out is included in this message. If, as a parent, you choose for your student NOT to complete the survey this form must be completed no later than Tuesday, October 1st.

Thank you for your consideration in allowing your student to participate.

Students and Staff that missed the 1st round of pictures, or you just would like a do-over can do so on 10/1. Keep a lookout for more information soon!

The Pierce football team is looking for your help! With the largest team in the last 15 years, and a growing youth football league that feeds into Pierce, we are looking to buy more equipment to help support the growth of this program. We will be selling DoubleGood popcorn from September 12-16, so we can keep total costs down and not have to bar any students due to financial reasons.

The student-athletes are making a commitment to this program, and we ask for any help whatsoever or just sharing this to anyone that would like to help the cause! Players have been working since the first week of August Monday-Friday to try and repeat a conference championship, which was accomplished last year for the first time since 2018. We hope to make Merrillville schools and the community proud!

The link for the head coach's store can be found below, all proceeds from the store go directly to the football program:
