Volleyball Camp for 4-6 graders
The PCSSD School Board recognized the Sylvan Hills Middle School Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) students who qualified for FBLA Nationals. 🐻

During the May board meeting, FBLA announced its state‑winning projects, explained what it takes to compete at the national level, and asked for support to help secure the $1,600 per person their team and chaperones need to travel to the competition this summer. Their clarity and confidence at the podium matched the work that earned them three state titles.

Happy Principal’s Day to the best around—Mr. Hudgeons 💙🐻

He’s not the kind of principal who stays behind a desk. He’s in classrooms, talking with kids, jumping into lessons, and making sure every student feels seen and valued.

He started his career as a teacher and coach, and you can still see that in everything he does—encouraging, guiding, and showing up for people every single day.

He challenges us to grow, but always has our back. He believes in his teachers, supports us, and creates a place where both students and staff can do their best.

SHMS is better because of him. No question!!

Drop a comment and help us celebrate him—share a kind word or a favorite moment 💙🐻
