Please see the following for information on an upcoming parent presentation.

The link to order yearbooks is open. This is only for 6th and 7th grade families. If you are an 8th grade parent, please do not order one as you pay for it through the 8th grade fees (the email was shared last week).

Any 6th or 7th grade student interested in purchasing a yearbook should use the following link to order:

PV students are invited to attend tutoring sessions at PTHS on Mondays and Wednesday beginning October 5th. National Honor Society students will be working with those students who attend. The October dates are as follows: October 5th, 7th, 14th, 19th, 21st, 26th, and 28th.

Any families that might benefit from free and reduced lunch are encouraged to check out the district’s website and consider applying. If you qualified last year, please be sure to apply again this year as the program requires annual updates. Also, some families might also qualify under the New Jersey Expanded Income Eligibility (NJEIE) program. Students will receive lunches identical to those of their peers and their information remains confidential.

All attendance-related emails must be sent to pvattendance@pequannock.org or call the attendance line directly @ 973-616-6050 (option #2).

If a parent receives a Robocall after 9:00 A.M., this means that the school received neither an email nor a phone call pertaining to their absence. If you receive this call, you must contact the school.
