    2025 BEST COMMUNITIES FOR MUSIC EDUCATION DISTRICTS For the second consecutive year, the MSD of Pike Township was selected to receive the Best Communities for Music Education Award. The award program recognizes and celebrates outstanding efforts by teachers, administrators, parents, students, and community leaders who have made music education part of a well-rounded education. Designations are made to districts and schools that demonstrate an exceptionally high commitment to and access to music education.    Please join us in congratulating our 2024-2025 Classified Staff of the Year and thanking all of the dedicated classified staff members who serve throughout our district.   Congratulations to the students from our Pike Career & STEM Center's Nursing Program at Pike High School who took part in this week's Pinning Ceremony. A Pinning Ceremony is a time-honored tradition that celebrates the completion of a professional or academic program. In the context of nursing, the ceremony honors graduates' entry into a nursing profession, such as CNA and CCMA. Each graduate is presented with a custom-designed pin that symbolizes their profession. The pin is bestowed by our Health Science Instructors. This moment reflects not only academic achievement but also dedication, compassion, and commitment to care. In addition to the pinning, the students have a lighting of the Nightingale Lamp, symbolizing the passing of knowledge and the spirit of care There were 54 CNA students and 19 CCMA students who were honored at the ceremony.  Courtesy of Nicole Johnson & Renee Walker   From May 2023 to May 2024, Pike once again achieved a 7% increase in the number of students scoring a 3 or higher on AP exams. We also saw growth in both the number of students taking AP exams and the total number of exams administered. Pike students outperformed the state average in nine AP courses and exceeded the global average in two, another strong testament to our academic excellence.   Friendly Reminder - Register your Returning Student Now All current PK-11th grade Pike students must be registered to assist us in preparing for proper resources and staffing for the upcoming school year.

  • #PikeProud - Week of 4-14-25

    Above & Beyond Awards At a recent meeting, the Board had the privilege of presenting Victoria Miller, who teaches Art at College Park Elementary School (CPES), with the Superintendent's Above & Beyond Award. Principal Botsford shared, "Her passion for the arts is obvious as it can be seen within her students as well. Miss Miller is able to create a caring environment that promotes learning through the arts amongst her students. Miss Miller has built strong relationships with all of her current students and maintains her relationships with students she had in the past as she works to keep in touch with them and their families... Miss Miller is always willing to step up and help when needed as well. Her incredible bulletin boards can be found in our intermediate and primary hallways and provide motivation to our students. This year, Miss Miller entered student artwork into the Holliday Park Art Show, allowing for the incredible work of our students to be admired by the community. Miss Miller’s eye for detail and hard work ensure student artwork is posted and that all of our students know they are incredible artists. Miss Miller dedicates time (before and after school) to supporting students and families to provide an engaging learning environment at College Park Elementary." The Board also presented the Superintendent's Above & Beyond Award to Angela Suski, who serves as a Reading Interventionist at Snacks Crossing Elementary School (SCES). Principal Jones shared, "Ms. Suski was selected to receive this award for her dedication, compassion, and inspiration to students and to staff. She continuously goes the extra mile and pushes the leadership team to reach their potential. She does not shy away from a challenge, but sees challenges as opportunities. Anything I ask, she has already thought of and completed. She believes in every student’s potential, and offers creative ways to support students and pours into the leadership team. She is an instrumental part of the staff at Snacks, and it is a pleasure to take part in presenting this award to her!"   Register your Returning Student Now The returning student registration window for the 2025-2026 school year is open.
