Greetings PHMS families and students,
Communication and Collaboration are the goals of our district and building this year. As I walk the halls and visit classrooms, I am amazed at all of the productive communication and cooperation taking place. Yes, you heard me...we love to hear the talking at PHMS. Of course the timing, tone, and topic of the talking is still a struggle, but we are working on learning how to communicate better.
This week we begin Pirate Time Clubs which will meet two times a month. The teachers get a chance to share their passions with the students. I can't wait to share stories and pictures with you. Be sure to ask your child about the science labs, art projects, station work, and other hands on, group activities they are doing weekly. This will help them learn not only academically but socially as well.
We have so many great things happening at PHMS. Be sure to check out our website, Facebook, and other platforms to see our PHMS students in action. Another busy week of extra-curriculars-let's get a good night's sleep and eat healthy meals!
Progress reports will be available on Sept 20th. All students with Fs will have time beginning on the 21st during the school day to work with a teacher to get caught up. Our goal this year-NO Fs and a lot of academic growth! Our teachers are focused and working hard to provide lessons to reach this goal. Our students are working hard as well.
So grateful for our middle schoolers and their families! Enjoy your weekend.
Mrs. Pendleton
