Press Conference with Governor Markell here at Pulaski!
On Friday, December

years, under the guidance of our wonderful physical education teacher,
Arden Miller and our school nurses, Pulaski has been striving to infuse
more physical activity into the daily lives of our students. Now
studies are showing a definite link between that and better academic
performance. Check the links below for news articles and videos of

DRESS
GUIDELINES
School pride and spirit begin with one's school appearance and attitude. All
students are expected to dress and groom in an 'appropriate' manner.
Pulaski students are expected to wear their uniforms at all times except
for special occasions organized by the school. This year shirts
may be navy blue as well as white. Navy blue pants, skirts, and
jumpers. Shoes must be worn
at all times. Hats, coats, and jackets are not to be worn in
school. Students will be well groomed, clean, and neat. For
more information on the School Uniform Dress Code
click here.

The library
is still missing books. PLEASE
look for missing books and get them back to the library! If the book is
truly lost, you may pay for it. If a family is experiencing
hardship, accommodations can be made for the student to work it off.
If you came from another Christina
School, the library debt will have followed you. Mrs. Berbeza will
be more than happy to settle up the debt and either send the book or
money to your previous school. Do not wait, please take care of
this matter as soon as possible. Your assistance is greatly
appreciated!
