Panther Weekly

March is Theatre In Our Schools month, a time when we celebrate and raise awareness of the power of #TheatreInOurSchools to develop well-rounded, empathetic, and thoughtful leaders. It a time when thousands of students, educators, and supporters join in grassroots campaigns that highlight how participation in school theatre programs helps students develop critical skills that will benefit them in their future careers regardless of whether they pursue arts after graduation. Exciting news is that last year our very own Gov. Kemp signed a proclamation declaring Georgia support and recognition of the importance of Arts Education.

Congratulations to the Parkview basketball players who were recognized on the county level. Corinne Sevier made all County teams, and she also won the community service award, Baileigh Page won the Scholar athlete award, El Dunbar made the All-Academic Team, and Brandon Pemberton made the All County and All State teams. Congratulations on all your hard work this season.

Please congratulate the girls' soccer team for an impressive 10-0 win over Meadowcreek last Friday night on the road. Senior Anna Braziunas broke a Parkview single game goal-scoring record with 6 goals. She also added 3 assists in the winning effort.

Summer Health & PE will be offered online through PHS Community School

Does your student need to free up his or her schedule to allow for band, theater, chorus, strings, or athletics? If you answered yes, then you should consider allowing your student to take Health and Personal Fitness (PE) during the Summer of 2026 through the Parkview Community School located at Parkview High School.

The fee is $250.00 per class.

Classes will meet virtually, M-TH Wednesday, May 27th – June 24th.

The Summer Health-PE Registration must also be completed on MyPaymentsPlus (MPP) and sent to the Community School. *** Be sure to sign-up for the Parkview course, NOT the Gwinnett Online Course. Registration for the Parkview course will not open in MPP until March 2nd .

Parkview HS will be offering Session 2 of Super Saturday Local Credit Recovery. This credit recovery uses courses created by our teachers and will require twelve hours of seat time. Students must attend all three Saturdays of the Session to complete the course. The grade earned on the final exam will be the final grade issued for the Credit Recovery course.

Students/Parents must complete this form to register for Session 2. Once registered, more information will be sent to registered students and parents.
