We are pleased to announce our upcoming Plymouth Middle Excellence Awards. The last week of school we will honor students for their academic achievement, their determination, humanity and character (the Panther Award) and their participation in extracurriculars like sports, clubs and groups.

Students were given an invitation this week during advisory. If you have questions, please reach out to Becca Denniston.

6th Grade Excellence Awards will be June 3 at 6:00pm in the gymnasium

7th Grade Excellence Awards will be June 3 at 7:30pm in the gymnasium

8th Grade Excellence Awards will be June 4 at 7:00pm in the gymnasium

Light refreshments will be provided by the Plymouth Parent Association.

We’re asking staff and families for a few moments to respond to a five-question survey about this fall’s capital technology levy.

Things to know:

• Voters will be asked in November to renew a capital technology levy that would provide our schools with about $7 million annually for another ten years.
• This funding is currently used for student learning devices, school technology, online learning systems, and digital teaching resources.
• The District would also use these funds in 2025-2026 to enhance safety and security at district schools, including secured entrances and security cameras.
• The district proposes to keep the tax rate the same.
• If voters do not approve the renewal, the School District will lose $7 million in funding and need to make cuts to technology and District operations in the 2025-2026 school year.

Thank you for your time. Please respond to the survey before Thursday, June 6.

Fill out the survey here.
