News From PHS
Dan Kania-Principal
Information for PHS Parents and Guardians:
The First Trimester ends November 10th. As students make that final push to earn the grade they desire, they should be looking for extra help from their teacher during Power Lunch. During this time we have several Academic Labs available as well as Teacher Office Hours for students to get additional support. Please talk with your students and encourage them to seek out the assistance they might need.
A Climate Survey went out to all families today. Please take a moment and provide us with feedback that will help us continue to improve our Character education and Climate here at PHS. Please check your email for a link and log in information for the survey.
Pacific High School is hosting a Food Drive to support the community during the upcoming holiday season. We are looking for shelf-stable items such as canned vegetables, boxed stuffing, or boxed desserts. The first hour that collects the most items will receive a Pizza Party during lunch on the 18th. Thank you very much for your support.
