Fourth Six Weeks Parent Newsletter
2020-2021
PJHS Mission Statement
Note from the Principal- Jennifer Garcia
Dear Parents,
We've concluded the fourth six weeks and we are already a week in to the fifth six weeks. Eighth graders were visited by high school counselors to develop career choices and core classes for next year's Freshmen schedules. Our current sixth and seventh graders will be registering during their Social Studies classes mid-April. Students who have completed the registration process will bring home a confirmation schedule for a parent/guardian signature. Notes and/or changes can be submitted on that document.
As we enter the state assessment season, please encourage your child to get adequate rest the night before testing. As usual, we will have free breakfast for all our students on the day of testing. Please encourage your child to do their best on state assessment for this data will help us make schedules and staffing decisions for next school year.
