This month, we're shining a spotlight on Citizenship - a core value in the MVR-III 8 Pillars of Success. Our goal is to help students Grow Together into responsible, compassionate, & active members of our community. Join us in fostering a spirit of citizenship in and out of the classroom again this year. Together, we truly can make a difference! #MVNation

Thank you for your patience. The PHS Stadium is now open. The game will begin shortly.

The PHS Football against Borgia is in weather delay for the next 30 minutes. Spectators are asked to exit the stadium and take shelter in their vehicle. Guests without a vehicle may take shelter in the PHS cafeteria. We will update guests when the delay has been lifted.

Every student (and teacher!) at Pacific Intermediate recently built a Lego plant kit to reinforce the district theme for this school year: “Growing Together.” The Lego plants are on display in classrooms as a reminder to all! #MVNation #MVR3Grows






Fourth graders at Zitzman Elementary took part in a class-wide Book Tasting to learn about the many different genres of literature. Students expressed why they enjoyed the components of the different genres to their classmates, and they explored new ones as well. #MVNation

The PHS Football Home Opener v. Borgia is 7 PM this Friday, Aug. 30. PHS will also host a Green Out Game Oct. 4, supporting Zac's Challenge organ-donation awareness foundation. See how to support this worthy cause at bit.ly/mvr3green, & mark your calendars for both games now!
