Message From the Principal/Assistant Principal's Desk
Hello PJHS Families,
Christmas in the Village was a success and we thank our PTO, staff, and families for supporting not only this event, but us throughout the school year.
This week we had our Jr. High band and choir concert at the High School. Mr. Kowalski and Ms. Marshall did an outstanding job, as well as the students with their wonderful performances. It was a great concert to get us in the spirit of this season.
We are looking forward to our 6th graders attending their field trip this Monday to the Museum of Science and Industry to combine learning with fun!
Additionally, we are having a district-wide spirit week, so below is the information included about all of our dress-up themed days for the week. We are looking forward to spreading some unity, kindness, and spirit this week among one another.
Below you will also see attached our flyer for our students at PJHS eligible to participate or be spectators in our December PBIS event, "Holly Jolly Volleyball" this coming Friday.
Reminder: This Friday, December 19th, is a 1:40 Dismissal. Lunch will still be served on this day.
Again, just another reminder that In the event that we would need an E-Learning day this season, you will see below the attached information of the PJHS E-Learning plan. It includes all the expectations and procedures your student will need to know to complete their E-learning day. Attached to the E-Learning plan is also a schedule that will be followed for that day. Please reach out if you have any questions.
We look forward to another great week ahead,
Thank you!
