Parent Meeting
  There is a mandatory parent meeting Tuesday, January 13th at 7:00PM.  It is a classroom meeting but we will ALL meet at the MSHS for a quick general meeting.  Please come to the MSHS campus first!!!

Childcare
  If you need childcare for the parent meeting, please make sure you call and schedule with the office. 

No School
  There is no school Friday, January 16th (this is a teacher workday) and no school Monday, January 19th.

Dennis Uniform
  If you order uniforms during the month of January, Dennis Uniform is giving a 10% discount.

Freedom Rides
  Any MSHS student who is still interested in participating in the Freedom Rides Program, it is not to late to participate.  Please contact Roger.
 

DVD/Video Game Rental Store
  Our middle school/high school students will be starting a DVD/Video game rental store.  If you have any "gently used" DVD movies or video games you want to donate, please send them with your student to school.  Write MSHS Rental Store on the bag.  We will have the MSHS students run this store and all students will be allowed to "rent" movies or video games.  We feel this is a great job opportunity for the students.

Therapy Dogs
  The main campus has 3 certified therapy dogs coming to visit on Friday, January 30th.  We will sending home permission slips in the near future.  If you do NOT want your child to participate in this event, please inform your child's teacher.  This is for the MAIN campus only.

Scrapbooking Fundraiser
  PHCS will be hosting a scrapbooking fundraiser on Saturday, February 7th at the middle school/high school from 9:00 to 5:00.  Participants are not required to stay for the full day.  The cost is $25.00 for the all day event.  We will be sending home a flyer soon with all the information.  Mark your calendars!

Secret Santa
  A big "Thank You" to all of you who donated money for our Secret Santa fund.  We helped make Christmas special for 12 PHCS families.  It is great to deal with such a great group of families who enjoy helping others.  THANK YOU!
