Dr. Phinnize J. Fisher Middle School

We're hiring bus drivers and bus aides. Greenville County Schools will host an in-person Transportation Job Fair on Tuesday, June 9, from 9 a.m. to noon at J. Harley Bonds Career Center. It’s a great time to join Greenville County Schools! https://tinyurl.com/2su92c9z

Greenville County Schools will operate on summer hours starting May 26. Schools and offices are closed Fridays through July 31.

PJFMS hosted the GCS Middle Level Planning Day today welcoming all the middle schools’ Instructional Leadership Teams as well as lots of academic and administrative leadership from the district office. While we take only a minute to catch our breath as we wrap up this year, there’s no time like the present to start preparing for the 2026-27 school year. It was a great day for reflection, collaboration, and readying for another great year. Hard work is way easier when you love your people. Enjoy your summer Firebird Family and know we are doing that important work for our kiddos. A special congratulations to Mr. McCartney for receiving the Flamingo Coin for your efforts!

As we wrap up the school year, on behalf of the Fisher Staff we want to say a huge thank you to our incredible students! Firebirds, thank you for bringing your energy, smiles, and creativity to school every single day. Middle school comes with a lot of changes, and watching you grow, tackle new challenges, and lift each other up has been the absolute best part of the year. You’ve worked so hard, and you totally earned this summer break!

Thank you and much love to our parents and partners for your incredible support in navigating the middle school roller coaster alongside us. Your teamwork makes all the difference. We are so grateful for our Fisher community. Have a safe, relaxing, and wonderful summer!

Field & STEAM Day was EPIC! So grateful for the amazing support of our PTSA as they have given everything of themselves these past few weeks. It was a joy to see so many former Firebirds coming back to volunteer to make the day fun. Our Firebirds were awesome all the way around!
