PJHS Parent Weekly

Hello PJHS Families,

We hope all students and families had time to unwind and get ready for the final few months of the school year left. We are looking forward to welcoming students back tomorrow!

Beginning tomorrow, students 6th-8th grade will be taking the IAR test. Please see all of the detailed information below regarding IAR testing. Please make sure your child has a charged Chromebook and earbuds/headphones for the testing.

This week we will also have this Friday, April 3, 2026, as well as the upcoming Monday, April 6th in observance of the holiday.

Lost and Found: Please encourage your student to check for any lost or misplaced items in the lost and found by the front office. We have quite a bit of lost articles, and will eventually be donating any unclaimed items.

Please note that 8th grade graduation for PJHS students will be on Thursday, May 21st at 7pm at Peotone High School (more information to come).

We look forward to another great week ahead,

Thank you!
