25-26 Teacher Requests
Potomack Intermediate is considering parent requests for classroom teachers for the 2025-2026 school year. Please keep in mind not all parent requests are able to be met for several reasons. Those reasons are:
- The number of requests for each specific teacher
- Required special education services
- The date and time the request was made
- State mandated class sizes
If you would like to request a classroom teacher for your student, please click the link below. The window for submissions is open and they must be in before Friday, February 7 so scheduling can begin.

Thank you!
Resumption of Strings Classes
As a reminder, strings classes with Mrs. McGar resume tomorrow, January 13 at the school. Please adhere to the schedule you used previously (Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday).
Thank you!
2025 Calendar with River - Extended Due to Snow
The 2025 River Calendar has been extended due to the snow. The last day to pre-order will be Friday, January 17 with photos being taken with those randomly selected the same day. Thanks for your patience and for those who have already pre-ordered!
Remote Learning Schedule
Berkeley County Schools has used all five of our traditional snow days for this school year. As a result, students practiced how to log onto their class' Teams meeting should schools be closed for inclement weather again. Please refer to the schedule below for remote learning days should the need arise.
Student Spotlight!
Potomack Eagles, we want to recognize you! We love to recognize academic achievements at school, but we know our students are accomplishing amazing things outside of school too! If your student has a notable achievement in sports, arts or other areas throughout the year, please fill out the form below. If you are unable to access the link, please e-mail Mrs. Steshoski with a brief description of the achievement and a photo. We will be spotlighting these achievements on our social media page throughout the year.

Updated:
PTO MEETING CANCELLED 12/11/24. Due to the Holiday Shop being such a great success for our Eagles, resetting for the next day will interfere with our meeting. Secure Volunteers are still needed: https://signup.com/go/VdFvMfJ
PTO is not a 4 letter word! Your PTO met for the first time & made this year’s focus “fulfilling student and teacher needs.” We invite our entire Potomack Intermediate community to join us for meetings in the cafeteria on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 4pm. Please follow Potomack Intermediate PTO’s Facebook page & watch Dojo messages for ways you can help this year. It isn't necessary to be an “official” PTO member to help us succeed in fulfilling student and teacher needs. Eagles SOAR!
