PA Family Communication
September 22, 2026
The scene above is from last week's 'Club Fair'. These student leaders were recruiting new members to the PA Culture Committee. Ask your child what club they signed up for?
We hope you had a restful and enjoyable weekend. The fantastic weather, focused students, and engaging classes has made for a productive and pleasant September.
Speaking of September, we are wrapping up the month next WEDNESDAY with our ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet your student's teachers, see their classrooms, and meet our community partners. There will also be some FREE FOOD and prizes. Even if you've been here for years, we hope that you will stop by for 15 +/- minutes and see what's going on this year.

All School Outing Date Change
Please note that our All School Outing has been moved from Thursday, October 1 to Wednesday, October 7 due to scheduled trail maintenance at Elmore State Park.
As we prepare for a day outdoors, we ask families to help support our students by making sure they come prepared with appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear for outdoor activities. Students should also bring a reusable water bottle and be prepared to spend the day outside.
Thank you for helping our students have a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable All School Outing!

PSAT's at PA
Juniors: Your assistance is needed if you wish to take the PSAT Exam this fall. The PSAT exam will once again be offered to Peoples Academy 11th grade students on Thursday, October 15th. The Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT®) is structured similarly to the SAT®, has the same sections and timing, and measures the same Reading and Writing and Math skills students learn in the classroom—the knowledge and skills your child needs to succeed in college and career. See what’s on the PSAT/NMSQT test. As of fall 2023, the PSAT/NMSQT is digital. Find out what to expect.
The cost of the PSAT exam is covered by Peoples Academy, but students MUST register with Tracie Locke in the guidance office so that an exam can be ordered. There is a quick turn around from the start of school and when the exam order needs to be placed. Please notify Tracie via email (tracie.locke@lamoillesouth.org) or sign up in the guidance office by October 1st.
Click the link above for the guidance department resource page. Inside you will find easy links to information about current courses, student opportunities, and preparing for college. Let us know what you think and if there are other resources we can provide for you!

⚽ Soccer Snack Shack & Booster Meeting
There are still spots available to sign up for the Soccer Snack Shack! We’d love to have more families help out. It’s a great way to support the Boosters while cheering on our Wolves!
Our next PA Boosters meeting will be Monday, October 19th at 6:00 PM in the Peoples Academy High School Library. Everyone is welcome, and we’d love to see you there!
There was lots of school spirit and good natured feuding on display Saturday at the Stowe v. PA boys soccer game (0-0 2OT).
We have lots of action in the sports world this week, but only one home game. Thursday at 4:30 the boys take on U-32.
If you haven't already, check out the options on gear. Something for the entire family.
On a roll....

What is the Lamoille.Findhelp.com site?
It's an original resource and REFERRAL tool for basic needs like housing, food, utilities, and transportation. The emphasis is on referrals, because not only can you find information about hundreds of organizations on the side, you can also refer yourself or others and make a direct connection with those organizations.
The site is free to use and has information about local (e.g. neighborhood food shelf), state (e.g. Department of Health), and ational (e.g. Veterans Affairs) resources. It can also be translated into over 100 different languages.
