PTMS September 26-30

 PTMS Wildcats,

   We hope that everyone enjoyed their weekend.  Last week, our Wilcats took their New Jersey Start Strong Assessment in Language Arts and Math in grade 5-8.  Our 6th-grade students also completed the Science assessment.  This data along with our NWEA Map data will be used to help drive instruction with our students going forward.  Our Wildcats did a great job and we thank them for their hard work!  

Our after school clubs start this week at PTMS.  We had several clubs develop a waiting list due to the number of student sign-ups.  Any student on the waiting list received a letter indicating this information.  If there are any openings in the future, we will begin to fill the spots using our waitlist.  We look forward to working with our Wildcats this week in the start of the PTMS after-school clubs!

PTMS September 19-23

 PTMS Wildcats,

     We hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.  Our Wildcats took their Math and Language Arts NWEA Map Test this past week.  Our RTI Data Team began analyzing the results and creating groups for students who need additional support in Math and Language Arts.  We look to finalize groups next week and start working with our groups of students on Monday, September 26.    

    Club sign-ups are available in the cafeteria for our 2022-23 after-school clubs.  All clubs have a limit to the number of participants.  Once the club is full, we will create a waiting list and add students as spots open.  Each student on the waiting list will receive a letter so they are aware.  We look forward to another successful year of after-school clubs at PTMS.

PTMS September 12-16

PTMS Wildcats,

We hope that everyone enjoyed their weekend!  Our first week of school was a huge success!  The positive energy in the building was contagious.  Students and teachers were able to reconnect after our summer break.  Also, our students were able to meet their new teachers, learn about each class, and begin building positive relationships with their peers and teachers.  We are looking forward to continuing this positive momentum throughout the school year!  

Also, this past week, each grade level had an assembly outlining rules and procedures around the school.  Our Wildcats were also informed of special events, clubs, and other activities that will take place throughout the school year. 

 This year at PTMS we introduced a new arrival and dismissal procedure to keep everyone safe.  The new process has kept every car off of the road and has allowed all of our Wildcats to safely enter as well as leave school.  We thank all of our parents and guardians for your support during these busy times in our day.
