We have great things planned for our students this year and each month, you can expect a monthly communication from your principal. Things to remember the first month of school include; the LRSD/PHMS Cell Phone Policy, the Dress Code Policy, and the instructional expectations of each class.

Please Note:

• Students will participate in grade level assemblies the first week of school. During these gatherings, administrators will review school social & academic expectations with students.
• Teachers will provide updated class related information on the class Schoology page. Parents who are unable to access Schoology may contact Counselor Stephanie Franklin and Instructional Lead Teacher Adrian Booker. Our endeavor is to provide real-time updates using the Schoology Platform.

• Students dropped off before 8am and picked up after 4:30pm will not have LRSD Security or SRO (LRPD) supervision. Please make a point to adhere to the establish school hours.
• You are encouraged to reach out early to each of your students' teachers. Teachers have been encouraged to do the same! We desire a "partnership" with our PHMS Stakeholders.

Looking Forward to an Excellent School Year!
