PJHS Parent Weekly

Hello PJHS Families,

Get your smiles ready PJHS students! This week is our picture day at PJHS on Wednesday, October 1st. If you need more information regarding picture day, please feel free to reach out to the office.

Also, on Thursday, October 2nd, the 6th graders will be taking a trip to the Mill during their Social Studies classes.

Additionally, the girls' basketball season officially starts this week! Come out and show them some blue devil spirit. GO BIG BLUE!

I am happy to say that the students are excited that we will have our up-coming fall dance. Right now, details of the event are coming together, but please save the date! The date for the PJHS fall dance is October 24th. Please be on the lookout for more information.

Furthermore, below you will see our information about our district-wide spirit days during homecoming week. We are looking forward to showing our spirit on these days!

Please note that information will be coming out soon regarding sign-ups for parent teacher conferences that are scheduled for October 30th.

We are looking forward to another great week ahead!

Thank you!

Please note the message from district transportation:

With the increase in students on bus routes this year, we are no longer able to allow extra passengers to ride home with other students. Families will need to make alternate arrangements for these situations.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding and support.

Please look over the student handbook for all policies and procedures for Peotone Junior High.

Please refer to the Chromebook policy for PJHS students. Please also try and remind your child to charge his/her Chromebook everyday to limit infractions of the policy.

A big thank you to our Peotone families and friends who purchased mums - we know those porches and planters are looking ready for fall!

Thanks to your support we sold over 900 mums and raised over $6,000! We look forward to using those funds to support our great Peotone schools, teachers and students.

Go Big Blue!

If you are dropping off any items for your child:

• The exterior door closest to the buzzer will be unlocked. You may enter using this door without needing to be buzzed in.
• There is a table set up on the right to place items being dropped off for your child. Please write their first and last name, and grade level on a sticky note and leave the item on the table.

If you are entering the building for any reason during the school day, you will need your ID to scan in through our Raptor system.
