Principal’s Weekly Update,
Happy New Year! I hope everyone enjoyed a restful and joyful winter break and had time to recharge with family and friends. Boy it's been COLD!!!! As we begin 2026, I want to thank our students, staff, and families for the strong sense of community and partnership that continues to define Pentucket.
As we look ahead, I would like to remind families that mid-term exams will take place during the week of January 20th. A detailed mid-term schedule was shared with families in December, and we ask that you please take a moment to review it again to ensure you and your student are prepared for the adjusted schedule during that week. Students who have study hall or co-op need to be in school or they will be marked absent for the time they are not here.
Mid-terms are an important opportunity for students to demonstrate their learning from the first half of the year, and we appreciate your support in helping them arrive rested, prepared, and on time.
Thank you, as always, for your continued partnership. We look forward to a strong and successful start to the new year.
WARM regards,
Brenda Erhardt
Principal
