    Dear Parents/Guardians,

    The PGT team would like to welcome you to the 2021-22 school year. We are expecting this to be our best year yet! Along with this letter, you should also have received the 2021-22 PGT Team Policies.

     

    Later this summer you should receive information about Orientation days when students can pick up schedules, get pictures taken for ID cards, pay fees, and get locker information. Please note that attendance on these days is not required. Check the Pine website (www.washoecountyschools.org/pine) for general information, including office hours.

     

    Email list

    If you know any PGT community members who did not receive this letter, please have them email Mr. Slater (dslater@washoeschools.net) so we can get them on the mailing list.
