Park Hill Clothing Center
The Park Hill Clothing Center would like to thank all of the families who have contributed to our facility. For anyone not familiar with the clothing center there is more information on the Park Hill Clothing Center Website.

Curriculum Connections
Check out the linked Curriculum Connections below to see what Park Hill students are learning! We want to share the learning topics at all of the grade levels so that you can ask your child about their learning this month. Your child's teacher is always happy to provide more details should you have questions!
Join PTA!
Joining the PTA is one of the best ways you can support your child, the school, and its teachers!
PTA also works with the school and its teachers directly to make purchases that have a huge positive impact towards our kids learning and development. Below are just a few examples of purchases made by your PTA last school year:
- Snacks and drinks on the monthly Friday PTA Spirit Cart
- $1750 For Teacher Appreciation Gifts During Distance Learning
- $505 for a new Bike Rack for our Track Area
- $300 to be used by the Southeast Care Team

Donation Drive
These are challenging times and given that we don't know exactly what the school year looks like, there will be no official fundraisers for the PTA this year. In lieu of fundraisers, we are going to combine a 1 time donation request with the membership drive this year. Your donation will be put to good use throughout the year in various and creative ways:- Helping Families in Need Through the Southeast Cares Team
- Social Distancing Friendly Ways To Support and Feed Our Great Teachers and Staff
- Continue To Work Directly With Teachers To Identify and Purchase Items To Help in Classrooms

Do you know a Park Hill Star?
The Park Hill Star recognition program was started in 2015 to celebrate support staff and teachers whose work is especially noteworthy.
The following is an overview of the Park Hill Star Program:
Our employees are the reason we are so successful here in the Park Hill School District, and we would like to recognize them for all they do for our students. That is why we present the Park Hill Star award once a month to a pre-K or elementary teacher, a secondary teacher and a support employee.
Southeast Communication
You will find several ways to stay up to date on school activities on the Southeast website , Facebook, and newsletters from your child’s teacher. You will also occasionally get an automated email or voicemail message sent to you, by the school, with important information and reminders. We know two-way communication is best, so please feel free to call or email with any questions you may have regarding your child’s education.
