PCCS Board of Directors Meeting June 16, 2026

🎓 Our Class of 2026 has so much to celebrate, including over $2 million in academic scholarship offers! Whether they're continuing their education, serving our country, or entering the workforce, Piedmont's graduates are ready for what's next.

Congratulations, Class of 2026! We can't wait to see all you accomplish. ✨

Congratulations to Piedmont's high school art students whose work was featured in the City of Gastonia Government 2026 Student Art Show. Projects by 9th graders, Savannah Piera and Landon Robinson, and 12th grader, Makenzie McKoy showcased these students' hard work, talent, and vision. Makenzie was Piedmont's winner, and also won 3rd place overall among high school submissions from Gaston County. Great work, Patriots!

As we celebrate the success of this school year, join us in recognizing our employees with 25 years of service to PCCS. 🍎 Elizabeth Berkebile, Bobbie Mathieu, Chris Oates, and Tammy Worley have been Piedmont staff members since the school opened in 2000. We are so grateful for the dedication of our incredible staff!

Junior Marshal is an honor bestowed on students in the top 5% of the high school junior class. Piedmont's Junior Marshals did a fantastic job serving in this prestigious role at the 2026 graduation commencement. Congratulations to the students who earned this distinction: Pictured L to R: Cole Underwood, Jillian Barnette, Iasmin Da Silva, Cooper Hamlin, Aidan Turner, Jack Hewlett, Presley Jernigan, Alberto Pena Adamovic, and Madelyn Wyatt.

Wishing our Patriots a safe Memorial Day holiday. Today, we remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. 🇺🇸
