Dear Bulldog Community,

Our Homecoming week at Princeton is finally here! We are looking forward to celebrating the traditions, spirit, and sense of community that make our school so special. We look forward to our pep rally, parade, and football game Friday night.

Students, be sure to enjoy the dress-up days throughout the week.

• Monday, October 12: Western Day

• Tuesday, October 13: Twin Day

• Wednesday, October 14: Jersey Day

• Thursday, October 15: Tropical Day

• Friday, October 16: Bulldog Strong Spirit Day

This is also the final week of the first nine-week grading period. Students should take time to check their grades, complete and turn in any missing assignments, and communicate with their teachers about any outstanding work. Let’s finish the grading period strong!

A few important reminders for students and families:

• Absence Notes: All absence notes must be turned in within three days of the absence.

• Exam Exemptions: High school students and eighth grade students enrolled in English I are reminded that unexcused absences can affect their eligibility for exam exemptions. Please make every effort to attend school regularly.

• Lunch and Outside Food: Students should not bring outside food or drinks into the building for lunch unless they are bringing lunch from home in their lunch boxes. Outside food in restaurant containers is not permitted in the cafeteria. All PMHS students receive free lunch each day and can participate in lunch even if they bring food from home.

• Breakfast in Classrooms: Breakfast in the classrooms is only permitted for middle and high school students participating in Grab-and-Go or Second Chance Breakfast. Middle and high school students should not bring outside food into the building in the morning. As a reminder, all PMHS students receive free breakfast each day.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Let’s have a great week, finish the grading period strong, and show our Princeton spirit throughout Homecoming week!

With Bulldog Pride,
Heather P. Anders, Principal
