2019-2020 Theme: LEAD with PRIDE
PHMS Announcements: May 24-30, 2020
We will be having our End of Year Drive Through Celebrations this week. This will give you an opportunity to pick up your child's belongings from their locker, school projects, yearbooks, and certificates. All students will keep their Chromebooks for the summer unless you are planning to move out of the district.
Each grade-level will have a designated day to drive through Pleasant Hill to pick up and drop off instructional items. Here’s the link with more information: PHMS End of Year Drive Through Days

Parents can pick up the meals, at any one of the seven schools designated as “grab and go” areas (Carolina Springs Middle, Forts Pond Elementary, Gilbert Primary, Oak Grove Elementary, Red Bank Elementary, Rosenwald Community Learning Center, White Knoll Elementary) or the areas designated as bus drop-offs.
The seven school sites serve from 11 a.m. through 1 p.m. Check the list of bus drop-off points for times and locations here.
The parent/guardian can have the children in the car or, if they do not have the children, they will need to present some form of valid identification for each child.
The child’s school identification card, passport, government-issued identification card, or even a homework assignment with the child’s name and school on it will suffice. The parent/guardian will also need to bring a form of identification that proves their relationship to the child, such as an adoption decree, birth certificate, daycare record, religious record, or even a doctor, clinic or hospital record.
