Note about Media Center Opt Outs
As part of the annual back to school update, parents were asked if they would like to receive an email notification of their student’s book checkout. If you opted in to receiving email notifications for your student’s book checkout, the ability for him/her to independently check out a book will not be an option. A media specialist or library aide will need to check out the books allowing them to send an email receipt.
If you no longer wish to receive these notifications, please complete this form. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact our school media specialist or building administrator.
Panorama
Student wellness is an essential component of educating the whole child. Here at Pinney, students will take the Panorama survey on between September 19 - October 1. Please see the parent information letter below. Included in the letter is the parent opt out form if you do not wish your child to take part in this questionnaire.
If you have questions about how this questionnaire helps us meet District goals or the process we use, please contact Dublin City Schools’ Director of Student Wellness, Tyler Wolfe at wolfe_tyler@dublinschools.net.
School Store
The school store is opening next week! The store will be open during lunch and recess. There will still be a spending limit at $5 per student.
Redistricting
Dublin City Schools is committed to keeping our community informed as we navigate the redistricting process. As such, we are providing the most current information on our website for families. This section of the website will include information about upcoming redistricting events and recordings from past events, as well as general information and frequently asked questions. The page will be updated as new information becomes available.
