What a special day yesterday! We were thrilled to host our First Annual Retirees Luncheon Reunion on Friday, November 14, 2025, at Powdersville Middle School.
It was truly heartwarming to welcome back so many familiar faces who dedicated their careers to shaping the lives of our Patriots. The energy, the laughter, and the stories shared were a beautiful reminder of the incredible foundation they built here at PVMS.
Thank you to every retiree who joined us—your legacy continues to inspire us! We look forward to making this an annual tradition.
