Positive Opening To School
We're off to an energetic and spirited start to the school year. Classes are buzzing and the hallways are busy. By now, you should have received plenty of emails from your students' teachers outlining the fall semester and beyond. If you have any questions or needs about school events, your student's schedule, or anything else, please reach out to our main office (888-4600). We hope to see you around school!
Fantastic time of year for outdoor classroom time.
Free Food!
The cafeteria will be offering free afterschool snacks to all students from 2:45-3:00. Send your students to grab the goods before departing for the day!
Guidance
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.
ASVAB Testing Opportunity
The ASVAB test will be offered at GMTCC on Thursday, September 17th from 9am-12pm. Please come to guidance to sign up and pick up a permission slip.

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.
