We have been experiencing rampant instances of students bypassing safety and attendance protocols by entering school without their school ID card, therefore not swiping in, or manually entering their ID number. Our Student/Parent Handbook states: Students are required to carry their school ID card at all times. Students must use their ID to swipe in upon entering each morning. The student is charged $1.00 each time they do not have their ID card. If an ID card is lost or destroyed, the cost is $5.00 to replace. Requests for new/replacement ID cards must be made at the Dean’s Office, room 302.

Students were given letters on Thursday that tell them how much they have accumulated in fees from November - February. Amnesty has been given to all students who owe less than $5.00. If there is a financial hardship, please contact Ms. Thompson klthompson@philasd.org, or Ms. Stamps rnstamps@philasd.org to discuss payment arrangements.

Students will risk ineligibility to participate in activities if their account paid, and charges will continue to be added until the end of the year. Seniors will not receive their diploma if there are outstanding charges on their student account. We have found that strict enforcement of this rule is necessary in having all students comply for the safety of the entire school community. We do not want to be in a situation where trespassers are in the building, or we cannot account for all students in the case of an emergency.

Thank you in advance for reinforcing the importance if this to your student(s ).

Shout out to our vocal and instrumental students who represented Palumbo in the All-City Music Festival on 3/12/24! The students have been rehearsing for months with students and teachers from across the district and were able to display their talents at the Kimmel Center! Thank you to our music teachers, Mr. Jordan, Mr. Hoffman, and our Itinerant teachers for your leadership.

The SWAV Club is sponsoring a drive to collect sanitary products to support The Spot Period Hub in order to end period poverty. Donations can be dropped off in room 322. The class with the most donations will win a movie day.

There are two medical forms that need yearly updating for all students. If you have not already done so, please complete the medical information form and the med-1 form which allows our nurse to administer medication to students while in school.

If your student tests positive for Covid, the reporting form can be found here as well.

Please contact nurse Stevens at cstevens@philasd.org if you have questions.
