Freshman Connections

We are very excited to welcome the Class of 2023 to the high school! Please review the contents within this newsletter which contains important information and upcoming events.

During the 2019-20 school year, Palisades High School will start its new mentoring program, Link Crew! Please click on this link for the EPS presentation.

As positive role models, Link Crew Leaders are mentors and leaders who guide freshmen to discover what it takes to be successful during the transition to high school and help facilitate freshman success.

Incoming freshmen will be assigned a link crew leader. This mentor will guide his/her incoming freshman through academic and social follow-ups.

Thank you for attending Freshman Orientation! We hope you had fun and received valuable information from your Link Crew mentors. Below, you will find a short recap which highlights events from Freshman Orientation.

Please remember to review the letter sent home and the school website regarding summer reading assignments.

Chromebooks will be distributed on September 3, 2019. Students will be called to the main lobby via the intercom. Please remember to charge your Chromebook so it is ready for the next school day.

Daily attendance is extremely important in a student's success at Palisades High School. When a student is absent from school, parents should call the school at 610-847-5131, ext. 2305 by 8:00 a.m. Messages can be left at any time by calling the above number. We will make every effort to contact parents when their child is absent if we have not received a phone call. After an absence, a written legal excuse, signed by a parent/guardian, is required within 3 school days. Students should submit excuses to their period 1 teachers or the main office upon their return to school.

Please review the student handbook and the following links regarding attendance procedures:

• Electronic Absence Procedures
• Attendance Acknowledgement Form 204.1
• Planned Trip Request Form

Please remember to report directly to your PERIOD 1 class; room locations will be posted outside the library, main lobby, and each exterior door.
