What an incredible accomplishment this past Friday.

Students from Paul Knox and North Augusta Middle School came together under the direction of Ms. Purcell and earned 1st place in Mixed Choir at the Music in the Parks competition at Carowinds.

Two schools. Two groups. One voice.

A huge congratulations and thank you to Ms. Purcell for the time, energy, and dedication she pours into both of these programs.

A special congratulations to the three soloists who also earned solo awards:
Allisyn Romeo
Addison Hegarty
Carolyn Hodges

And the best part… celebrating it all together. A day full of music, rides, laughter, and memories these students won’t forget.

So proud of this group and what they accomplished together.

PAUL KNOX PARENTS AND GUARDIANS

Please help us by reminding your students to come to school prepared. It is important that chargers are always brought to school, and stay in bookbags when they are not being used. Thank you so much!

Remind your student to bring their charger to school, please!
Student devices need to be updated weekly in order to operate properly. This is especially important as we approach state testing. All students should have been shown how to do this, but you can help them, by opening the settings menu, going to the Windows Update tab on the left and clicking "check for updates". Then install any updates that are waiting.

Thank you for your support in preparing our students for state testing!
