Brief Message From the Principal

Dear Pirate Families,

As we move into March, we are excited about the opportunities ahead for our students and staff as we continue working toward a strong finish to the school year. Thank you for the continued support you provide to Pleasant Hope High School and to your students’ education.

Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held on March 9th from 2:00–7:00 PM in the High School Gym. I strongly encourage you to take this opportunity to meet with your child’s teachers. These conferences are a great way to discuss your student’s progress, ask questions, and strengthen the partnership between home and school. Your involvement in their education truly makes a significant difference in their success.

Spring Break will take place next week, 3/16 through 3/20. We hope this break provides students and families with time to relax, recharge, and enjoy time together. When we return, we will begin the final stretch of the school year, and we look forward to finishing the year strong both academically and in our school activities.

Thank you for your continued support of Pleasant Hope High School and our Pirate community. If you ever have questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Sincerely,

Jered Brown
Principal
Pleasant Hope High School
