Continuing Student Registration for 24-25 open now. Register by March 31.
Online Continuing Student Registration is open now until March 31, 2024. We must receive a completed digital packet for all returning students. This will allow for proper placement of your student for the 2024-2025 school year. This annual digital process allows a family to complete one single “family” packet instead of completing one packet per student. Packets can be completed using any computer, tablet or smartphone with an internet connection.
Continuing Registration Steps:
Login and complete the digital registration packet via the online registration portal found here.
Review and complete any required forms located at the conclusion of the process. A packet is not considered finalized until this step is completed.
Please note: MEDICATION FORMS or ADDITIONAL SIGNED SITE SPECIFIC FORMS WILL NOT BE COLLECTED UNTIL SCHOOL BEGINS IN AUGUST FOR THE 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR.

State Testing - March 25-April 1
Starting Monday, March 25 through Friday, April 5, our school will be operating on a modified bell schedule to accommodate mandatory state testing of our Junior and Senior classes. Although 9th and 10th graders are not testing, they will follow the same bell schedule. Start and end times will remain the same (8:35-3:45 M, T, Th, F, and 9:55-3:45 on W), but we will not have homeroom on Mondays and Fridays so the schedule is slightly different. Please see the CAASPP testing bell schedule.
For more information, visit the PHS Testing webpage here.
Thank you for your cooperation.

CLASS OF 2024 INFORMATION
FAFSA and CADAA Forms Now Open!
The new FAFSA (Federal Student Aid) and CADAA (CA Dream Act) forms are officially open! The good news is that (when the system is working) the student portion of the FAFSA is significantly shorter. The majority of students can submit their section without any issues, however, the new FAFSA puts a lot more responsibility on the parent to submit their part of the application separately. Due to this, non-profit organizations across San Diego County are gearing up and helping parents complete and submit their portion. They are offering a number of Cash for College Financial Aid Workshops in the next two months.

FOOD AND NUTRITION INFORMATION
School breakfast and school lunch are FREE for all enrolled students, every school day. Meals must still be entered into the cafeteria computer by individual student account.
Even though meals are free, families are still highly encouraged to complete the application for free and reduced-price meal eligibility. Eligibility status is still required for meal reimbursements, and school site funding depends in part on the number of students eligible for free/reduced-price meals. Families that qualify for free/reduced-price meals may qualify for other benefits, as well. The meal application is available online at MySchoolApps.com.
One-page, printer-friendly PDF menus are available on the PUSD Food and Nutrition webpage. At the top of the page, click or hover over School Menus + and then Printable PDF Menus.
