Principal's message
Dear Parents/Guardians and Students:
We are extremely excited to welcome everyone back to Pasco High School for the 2021-2022 school year. I hope you are having a safe, enjoyable summer and are ready to return for the coming school year. We are thrilled to have all of our students return to campus next year and be surrounded by the tremendous amount of potential at PHS. High School is an amazing opportunity for students to prepare for their future. PHS has made a long-standing commitment to provide students with personalized learning experiences to prepare them for college, career, and life.
It is our goal to have everyone fully registered and ready to begin class on Tuesday, August 10, 2021.
Please carefully read all of the enclosed information to help you and your student have a successful start to the school year. We have included several topics around the questions we have been receiving the past few weeks.
Serving as your principal is just as great of an honor as it is a responsibility. I believe that the basis of our future accomplishments will be found in the control of our combined efforts and the strength of our collaboration. I look forward to meeting and working with you all.
If you have any questions, please call the school office at (352) 524-5500. We look forward to seeing all our students on August 10, 2021 for a wonderful opening of school.
Sincerely,
Kari Kadlub

Be Involved: Become a member of PHS School Advisory Council (SAC)
A School Advisory Council (SAC) is a link between the schools and the local community. It provides for active participation by the various shareholders in the school community in identifying critical student needs and developing goals and plans for meeting those needs. The shareholders are parents/guardians, business people, students, other community interests, professional educators, and other school staff. Shared decision making among all shareholders of the school community, both internal and external, can benefit the school and produce better student outcomes. A School Advisory Council is a resource to the school and the school Principal. The term advisory is intended to mean: assist, suggest, recommend, inform and consult.
If you would like to nominate someone to be a member of the 2021-2022 SAC, please complete the form below. All nominations are due by August 10, 2021.
