Pikeland CUSD 10

Saukees!

Today and tomorrow we have our surplus giveaway at all three of our schools. Many people have already stopped by and found something to fit their needs. If you know of a community group or organization that may need sturdy shelving or cafeteria style tables, let them know those items are still available! Pass the word and come by to see what we have. Thank you for your support with this project!

Pikeland Surplus Give Away!

We have a great deal of surplus inventory we are looking to pass onto a good home. The district has been able to get decades of use out of these items and no longer need them. We would like to offer them to anyone in the community who could repurpose these items.
All of the surplus items will be placed behind PCS and in the front of South Elementary School and Pittsfield High School starting Wednesday July 9. Each item is on a first come first served basis with no holds on items. Items will be available starting Wednesday morning and the process will be finished by the end of the day on Thursday.
Come by and see what we have!

Saukee Family, It has been an amazing and exciting start to my tenure here at Pikeland! My exceptionally knowledgeable and dedicated team have been fabulous in assisting with my transition. This is a tremendous opportunity for all of us to learn and grow together as we establish Pikeland as a school district of distinction. Our partnership and shared dedication to our students will allow us to find solutions to any situation that may arise. I welcome and appreciate feedback you feel will help us become a better and stronger learning community. Please feel free to connect with me in a call, email or in person because we are in this together! Saukee strong, Dr. Russ Tepen Pikeland Superintendent

The South School teaching staff would like to thank Farmers National Bank of Griggsville for their generous donation of Staples gift cards!

All South School Kindergarten students and their teachers were gifted a copy of the book 'If I Were a Moose' by its author Lisa Lemons. Ms. Lemons is a former graduate of East Pike High School in Milton. In addition, former South School librarian Peggy Ottwell donated a copy to the South School library and to Mrs. Allen. We are incredibly grateful for their generosity!

The South School Little Braves did an amazing job of supporting the community by donating food items for the PHS Food & Toy Drive. This was a great opportunity for the students to demonstrate kindness which is something we focus on frequently at South. Congratulations to Mrs. Groom's class donating the most items and winning the class pizza party sponsored by the Little Braves Boosters! Also, congratulations to Mrs. Oitker's class on earning second prize and winning a cookie decorating party compliments of the Little Braves Boosters. Thank you to the PHS Student Council who coordinated the Cereal Box Domino Challenge - the students loved lining the hallways and watching the boxes fall!

Please let me take a moment of your time time to say thank you for the support that everyone has provided me during my tenure as interim superintendent for Pikeland #10. It has been an honor and a privilege to serve in this capacity over the past few months. And, the opportunity to work with so many wonderful people is something for which I am very grateful and will never forget. Keep up the good work that you do for your students and school community. Hoping you all have a great Thanksgiving break with family and friends. Jo - Out “Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.”-- J.M. Barrie (Peter Pan)

Dr. Russ Tepen visited Pikeland Today! He received a warm welcome from students, staff and administration. We look forward to having Dr. Tepen as our superintendent for the 2025-2026 School Year. We plan to have opportunities in the future for parents and community members to meet Dr. Tepen.

Today is Board Member Appreciation Day! We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your dedication to the Pikeland School District. Your role carries immense responsibility, and you’ve taken on the role with wisdom and integrity. Thank you for your active participation in the leadership of our District. You have generously given your time to make tough decisions and act in the best interest of our students and our schools. Again, we say Thank You!

South School Spotlight - Week of November 11th

South School Spotlight - Week of November 11th

The PHS Student Council Food Drive begins this week! Any South School family who would like to donate food items can bring the items to school beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, November 12. The class who brings in the most food items by December 5 will receive a class pizza party compliments of the Little Braves Boosters. **We do ask that no glass bottle donations be sent in as they are a safety concern.** New this year is a Cereal Box Challenge. Students can bring in unopened boxes of cereal and on December 5, the PHS Student Council will set the cereal boxes up like dominos and the students will get to watch them fall throughout the hallways. Donations are always welcomed, but never expected. This purpose of this project is to offer support to local families in need while teaching our Little Braves about generosity and kindness.

Have a great weekend!
