Monthly Memo from the Principal
Mrs. Robbins- September 2019
Welcome Back!
Based on feedback you provided in the parent/student surveys this spring, we will be providing this monthly memo as an attempt to keep our community up-to-date on how things are going at PHE and keep you informed on important dates and events.
I would like to take this opportunity to share a few things about myself and family. This is my fourth year as the proud principal of Pleasant Hill Elementary. I actually opened PHE as a kindergarten teacher 16 years ago. This is my 20th year in education and in Leander ISD. I have taught at the following schools:
Whitestone Elementary (Kindergarten)
Pleasant Hill Elementary (Kindergarten)
Leander High School (Ready, Set, Teach!, Cheer, ACE/Health)
Rouse High School (Assistant Principal)
River Place Elementary (Assistant Principal)
I have four children, Emma (10th grade), Reagan (6th grade), Carter (5th grade), and Reece (Kindergarten). I am excited and proud to have two of my children on our campus this year (see pictures below). My husband is an assistant principal at Leander High School and has been there for nine years. We are proud to be part of the Leander Way! I am very connected to this community and care very much about our students and families. I will continue to work hard for you all and for what is best for our students. As always, please email me if you ever have any concerns or comments that I can assist with here at PHE (or anywhere for that matter).
Thank you,
Heather Robbins

What are "O" days?
Healthy Husky Morning Workouts
Morning workouts are starting next week! Workouts will be held every Monday and Wednesday starting September 4th. We will be playing the Wii and other games around the gym. We will be open from 7:20-7:40 AM on these days and are open to all grades. Just a couple of reminders:
- Make sure you eat breakfast before you come in the gym. There will not be time after morning workout to eat in the cafeteria.
- Backpacks will be placed on the wall of the gym or can be dropped off in their classroom.
