Dear Pittsfield High School Parents
The online registration link is open for you to register your student(s) for the 2020-2021 school. The online registration process takes the place of most of the beginning of the year paperwork. Please take the time to log onto www.teacherease and complete the online registration. Fees at the high school will not be generated until August 7, 2020, so they will not be available for you to pay at the high school level until August 10, 2020. Please email me at agreger@pikeland.org with any questions.
Mrs. Greger
At this time the start dates for Pikeland Unit 10 Fall Athletics are as follows:

https://forms.gle/FMU91kDZXngixRHe7
Dear PHS Class of 2024,
I have not forgotten about you and the need to begin orienting you to Pittsfield High School. I have been so excited to see how many of you jumped into sports conditioning and look forward to watching you compete and participate as a Pittsfield High School Saukee over the next four years.
We are working on posting some resources for you to review. Also, I have held off moving forward with registration as I was hoping to be able to meet many of you in person to answer your questions before you complete registration. Fortunately, Illinois entered into Phase 4 last week so that I can now schedule groups of 50 together. Sometime after July 4, you will be given an opportunity to sign up with your parents to attend one of several orientation sessions that I will hold.
I hope you are enjoying time with your family this summer. I wish you a wonderful Independence Day holiday week. I am looking forward to seeing you soon!
With Saukee Pride,
Mrs. Greger

The track will be closed to the community during those times to allow our athletes to use the facilities. We will keep you informed of any changes to those times. The PCS walking path will still be open for walkers during those hours.
The Pittsfield High School track and the walking path between PHS and PCS are now open for individual and family walking/running. We ask that you follow social distancing guidelines when using those areas. We look forward to seeing you soon!

There are signs of spring at Pittsfield High School. Enjoy your Sunday with your family. ❤️
Pikeland Families,
Earlier today, Governor Pritzker issued an executive order requiring residents to “stay at home” effective Saturday, March 21 at 5:00 pm, through the end of April 7. As part of the Governor’s order, he announced that school will remain closed, with a new tentative reopening date of April 8. We recognize that this development may raise questions about the impact on students, staff, and families. We anticipate further guidance and details from the Illinois State Board of Education next week, and will update you when we know more.
During this time, we will continue to make food through our Snack Pack program available to students and are working to increase what we can safely offer in the next two weeks. Our district covers 326 square miles and delivering hot and cold foods to all of our communities is a challenge. We are continuing to work with our stakeholders to find additional ways to safely serve our students. We will have an announcement early next week about our Wednesday Snack Pack deliveries.
In addition, the governor has made it clear that, while he’s serious about using social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19, he wants residents to still be able to work, shop at grocery stores, put gas in their cars, take walks outside and get medication from the pharmacy.
Please use this opportunity to focus on staying safe and helping to slow the spread of the virus. As always, thank you for your patience and support as we all work through the COVID-19 Pandemic. As you have seen, this situation is evolving rapidly and we will continue to communicate information as we receive it. Central office will continue to be staffed Monday through Friday from 8:00-1:00. Please call if you have questions or need to find resources. We will do our best to help you.
With Saukee Pride,
Paula Hawley
Superintendent
Okay, my peeps! I know your favorite activity on a rainy day is sleeping, but when you are awake set aside an hour and read from your favorite book. Don't forget to take a picture and send to Mrs. Shade for the Cornavirus virtual spirit week spread! lshade@pikeland.org
Coming soon (4:30-6:00!) to a community near you!

PHS Students - Happy St. Patrick's Day - I hope you are participating in our Virtual Spirit Week! Mrs. Greger
I am excited that tomorrow will kick off the first-ever Virtual PHS Art Show!! Each school day Mrs. Davidsmeyer will load a picture of artwork completed as part of her student engagement assignments! Check-in each school day to see who our featured artist will be.
Let me start by saying that there is no playbook for doing what we are doing. The game and the rules change daily. Times like these require us to think on our feet and certainly outside of the box!
Over the past few days we have had tremendous support from our staff, families, and communities to help get student learning in place while still being aware of the implications and restrictions imposed on us by the COVID-19 Coronavirus.
On Wednesday of this week and next, the Pikeland Snack Pack program in conjunction with the Pikeland School District will be at 11 locations in the district handing out grab and go snack pack/meal bags of non-perishable items from 4:30-6:00. This will be a quick pickup process with bags delivered to each vehicle as you arrive.Please stay in your cars when picking up bags, and we will ask for student names as you receive your bag. There will be one bag per family but we will be flexible with families with a large number of kids.
Pick up points on Wednesday from 4:30-6:00 will be:
Baylis--Post Office
Detroit/Florence--Detroit Christian Church
Milton--Christian Church
Nebo--Old School
New Hartford/Summer Hill-- Ackles
New Salem--Post Office
Pearl--Jiffi Stop
Rockport--Community Center
Time-Park Square
PIttsfield--Nazarene Church Community Center
Pittsfield--Crossroads Center
We will post any changes to the program here as we move through the next week. If you have specific needs, please contact us and we will help you in whatever way we can. We can be reached at 217-285-2147 M-F from 8:00-1:00.

Why not have a VIRTUAL SPIRIT WEEK? Send photos to lshade@pikeland.org and/or tag Saukee Yearbook in a post with your picture for your photo to be used in the 2020 yearbook. #Coronacation #PHSVirtualSpiritWeek
Pittsfield High School - Please join us in a virtual spirit week. I will note on the website how Mrs. Shade would like for you to send her your spirit week pictures. The school is very quiet without all of you! I miss you! Mrs. Greger
Saukee Yearbook desperately needs photos of you and how you are spending your time during the school closure. Are you working on the packets your teachers sent home, getting extra sleep, doing chores, playing video games, getting extra hours at work, babysitting your younger siblings, doing workouts/training at home to stay fit for Spring sports, or something else? We are planning on doing an entire Spring spread on this to make up for lost coverage, so we’ll need a lot of pictures. Please send photos to lshade@pikeland.org or get them to Paige Thometz. They can be cell phone photos, but please make sure they have good lighting and color. If you have a DSLR, we would prefer those, but let’s face it, most cell phones today take amazing photos. PLEASE DO NOT ADD FILTERS! You will get photo credit. Please include who took the photo and explain what is happening in it when you send the picture. Thank you!
