Parkway Center City Middle College

Notes from the Principal

Principal Wallace would like to remind the Parkway community of the following:

• Dress Code Reminder

While PCCMC does not require uniforms, all students must follow the school’s Dress Code Policy. Please take time to review the policy with your child. The full policy is included below for your reference.

•  Attendance & Punctuality

Please make every effort to have your child arrive by 8:00 a.m. daily. Consistent, on-time attendance is vital for your child’s success
