Thank you to the Alamance County Rotary club! Each student in our school got a FREE brand-new book, and had a terrific book read to them. Our community supports our schools! @ABSSPublic
It takes courage to be kind, a lesson these kids are taking to heart as part of the Kindness Club at @PGOwls! These acts of kindness can spread, lowering bullying rates and making a tremendous difference in the school climate. #ABSSDifferenceMakers https://youtu.be/giea-J70i8Q
We love our SRO’s and the relationships they build! We captured this moment at Pleasant Grove Elementary this morning. Thanks, Officer Wilkins, for all you do. #StudentCenteredFutureFocused

Good Morning PGE Families: Please look at the attached image that defines Truancy, absences that are unexcused per the Compulsory Attendance Law, and Chronic Absences, absences both excused and unexcused, with emphasis on academic impact. As attendance is being monitored, some of our Owls have over 20 plus days of absences(chronic) with no correspondence to the school regarding the absences. Please be sure to reach out to the school and your child's teacher when there is an absence. Notes, preferably doctors, should be returned with your child upon his/her return.
The Pleasant Grove staff are thankful for St. Mark's Church. They treated the staff to a very nice snack.
Good Afternoon, PGE Families!
On Friday, January 20th, bus 45 will not be running the normal morning route. Mr. Alston will be our only driver (bus 25), in addition to the regular late bus (346). Mr. Alston will be picking up students from buses 45 and 25 routes. Due to these routes being combined, times may be slightly off. Please have your child ready early and be patient with us. If you have already spoken to the front office about bringing your child to school, we appreciate your help. This message is for the morning route only. All afternoon drop off times will remain the same. Please call the front office at 336-421-3701 if you have any questions.
