❗❗Important Reminder❗❗
Heads up! The 3rd quarter ends next Friday, March 14, and we want to ensure all students are on track for success! Quarter grades play a critical role in determining final semester grades, which decide whether students earn course credit. Please remind your students to submit any missing assignments and address low scores. Failure to do so could result in challenges during the final stretch of the semester.
With only 12 weeks remaining, now is the time to stay engaged, check grades, and encourage your student to finish STRONG! If you have concerns, please reach out. We are are here to help! Students should take advantage of afterschool tutoring and PAPER academic support to improve their understanding and performance. We welcome in-person visits, text messages, phone calls, and emails. Open and honest communication is the best way to address any concerns.
Parent-teacher conferences are a week away. This is an excellent opportunity to discuss your students' progress and ensure they are on track for success.
Thank you for your partnership in your child's education. If you have any questions or need assistance accessing PowerSchool, please get in touch with me.
With Pirate Pride,
Cori Hobbs

YOUR VOICE MATTERS!
It's time to complete the 5Essentials Survey, and we need your input to help make our school even better for our students. This survey allows you to share your thoughts on school culture, learning conditions, and areas where we can grow.
Why participate?
✅ Your feedback shapes improvements in academics, safety, and communication.
✅Higher participation strengthens our school, the more responses we receive, the better we understand what students and families need.
✅It takes just 10 minutes, but the impact lasts all year!
Schools with strong parent engagement see better student outcomes, and your participation strengthens our partnership. This is your chance to highlight what's working, address areas that need attention, and make sure your child's educational experience is the best it can be.
Thank you for being an essential part of our school community! Please click the link below to complete this quick survey.
As we move through the school year, the health and safety of our students, staff, and community remain our top priority. To ensure that our school environment remains safe and healthy for everyone, we kindly ask for your cooperation in the following:
Please keep your child at home if they are experiencing any symptoms of contagious illnesses such as strep throat, COVID-19, the flu, or similar ailments. Common symptoms to watch out for include, but are not limited to:
- Fever
- Sore throat
- Persistent cough
- Shortness of breath
- Runny or stuffy nose
- Fatigue or muscle aches
- Headache
- Loss of taste or smell
- Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
By keeping your child home when they are feeling unwell, you are playing an important role in preventing the spread of illnesses and protecting the health of other students and staff members.
Attendance Matters
While it's important to keep sick children at home when they are unwell, we also want to emphasize the importance of regular attendance when your child is healthy. Consistent attendance is critical for your child's academic success. Each day builds on the next, and frequent absences can make it challenging for students to keep up with classwork, remain engaged in learning, and develop the social skills that are so important during these formative years.
We are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and enriching learning environment for all students and we believe that with your help, we can balance the need for safety with the importance of attendance. If your student will be absent, please communicate with our Attendance Office and your child's teachers.
Ms. Northern, our school nurse, is available to answer any questions you may have from 7:30-3:00 during the school week. She can be reached at Ext: 1797 or by emailing knorthern@pths209.org

❗❗Recordatorio importante❗❗
¡Atención! El tercer trimestre termina el próximo viernes 14 de marzo y queremos asegurarnos de que todos los estudiantes estén encaminados hacia el éxito. Las calificaciones del trimestre juegan un papel fundamental para determinar las calificaciones finales del semestre, que deciden si los estudiantes obtienen créditos del curso. Recuerde a sus estudiantes que envíen las tareas faltantes y solucionen los puntajes bajos. De lo contrario, podrían surgir desafíos durante la recta final del semestre.
Con solo 12 semanas restantes, ahora es el momento de mantenerse comprometido, verificar las calificaciones y alentar a su estudiante a terminar FUERTE. Si tiene inquietudes, comuníquese con nosotros. ¡Estamos aquí para ayudar! Los estudiantes deben aprovechar la tutoría después de la escuela y el apoyo académico de PAPER para mejorar su comprensión y desempeño. Aceptamos visitas en persona, mensajes de texto, llamadas telefónicas y correos electrónicos. La comunicación abierta y honesta es la mejor manera de abordar cualquier inquietud.
Las conferencias de padres y maestros están a una semana de distancia. Esta es una excelente oportunidad para analizar el progreso de sus estudiantes y asegurarse de que estén encaminados hacia el éxito.
Gracias por su colaboración en la educación de su hijo. Si tiene alguna pregunta o necesita ayuda para acceder a PowerSchool, comuníquese conmigo.
Con orgullo pirata,
