Last week, Pelham City Schools staff and our School Resource Officers attended the TAASRO Safe Schools Conference to learn, collaborate, and strengthen school safety practices. Assistant Superintendent Dr. Dorann Tanner was also selected to participate in specialized Project Unite training, a national initiative focused on proactive school safety, prevention, and early intervention.
The learning doesn't stop when the conference ends. We'll continue to plan and work together to ensure our schools remain safe and supportive for students and staff.
We're proud to celebrate our Pelham High School student-athletes who signed to continue their academic and athletic careers at the collegiate level. Their hard work, dedication, and commitment in the classroom and in competition have truly paid off.
Together, this outstanding group earned a collective average GPA of 3.4 — an impressive accomplishment alongside the countless hours spent training, competing, and balancing busy schedules.
Congratulations to each of these students on this exciting next chapter, and we wish them all the best at the next level!
Be sure to keep an eye on the PCS app and our social media channels throughout the summer for important reminders, updates, and back-to-school information.

It's a Great Day to Be a Panther! 💚
