Dear Families,
The PBCSD has created an option for online learning using Google Classroom that provides activities for students in grades kindergarten through 5th. These activities are designed to provide review and enrichment in these eleven subject areas: Literacy, Math, Social Studies, Science, Art, Music, Library Media, Physical Education/OT/PT, Speech, Social Emotional Learning and Fun Activities. The materials on the Grade Level Google Classrooms are strictly a resource and will not be collected or graded. Please hold all questions and concerns about posted materials. Please follow the steps below with your child in order to access their grade level “Classroom” website.

Since our pre-K students do not have PBCSD Google accounts, a website of resources has been linked to the PBCSD’s website under the Parent/Community page.
Email your child’s classroom teacher: If you have questions about your child’s student ID number (lunch number) OR if you are having trouble accessing Google Classroom please: All district emails consist of:
firstname.last name@pinebushschools.org
Ex: mary.smith@pinebushschools.org.
