Tips for Success
PHS Freshman Edition
We have 5 days until the start of the school year, so I thought I might release 5 last minute tips on high school success for the Class of 2025. Look for a new tip each day.
Tip #1 - Know how you learn best. Think about how you have been successful in the past with tests and assignments and stick to what you know works. School supply lists are not generated for high school. What I always tell students is to get what supplies they know they need to learn best. Have trouble remembering assignments? Then get yourself a planner. Need binders to stay organized? Then get a binder for every class. On the first day of school, each teacher will tell students if there are any additional specific supplies required.
We are looking forward to seeing each of you and meeting your children!! Please stop by and get your picture taken with your teacher and introduce yourself. The Kindergarten teachers will be in the grass on the north side of the school, Grade 1 teachers will be on the concrete in front of the school. Grade 2 teachers will be on the concrete area just south of the building. Teachers will have grade level informational packets, and the breakfast/lunch menu for you. Your child should not bring their supplies with them until the first day of school.
Looking forward to seeing you all again next Monday!!

Just give your child's school a call and we will be able to walk you through what to do. If you receive a voicemail message, just leave a message with a call back number.
