PINE HOLLOW MIDDLE SCHOOL
Friday, February 14, 2019
Dear Parents,
Friendly reminder that there is no school tomorrow (2/15), or Monday (2/18). We hope your children enjoy the 4-day weekend and use it as an opportunity to catch up on some of the work they haven't yet completed. If you can take an extra few minutes with them this weekend to review their assignments on HomeLink, we know it will greatly help them. Our teachers are constantly reminding students to complete assignments and turn in late work, so your support in this area will dramatically help our students increase their learning and improve their grades.
On a similar note, progress reports were distributed today, so if your child did not share their's with you, you can view their grades on HomeLink, or call the office to get another copy. Finally, please email your teachers if you have questions or concerns about your child's progress. They are happy to talk with you and/or meet with you if necessary. Thank you for your support, have a great long weekend with your family, and happy Valentines Day! Best,
Ben Campopiano
Principal, Pine Hollow Middle School
