PCSSD is currently experiencing an internet outage that covers almost every school in the District. One of the main fiber lines was cut and caused the outage. AT&T has been notified and will fix the issue. However, we do not have an estimated duration for the outage other than that it will be "an extensive repair." We appreciate your patience.
We're launching a new tool for communication! What better way to stay updated with the latest information from PCSSD than with your very own pager. Clip it to your belt and you'll be walking in style AND the latest from PCSSD.
