Dear Families:

Good Afternoon Families:

Our Spirit Week is off to a GREAT start - it's so fun to see students participating in some friendly competition! Our Turkey Toss was held on Wednesday and it was so much fun. Stay tuned as the staff and cheerleaders have teamed up for a suprise on Color Day......

I wanted to share an important addition to the safety of our students at PMHS. Beginning December 1st we will be utilizing a system called Raptor. When a visitor comes to our building, they will need to present a photo ID - once the visitor is cleared, a vistor's badge will print for the person to wear while in the building. This system will help our staff easily identify someone who is a guest. When coming to the MHS, for a meeting, or an extended time DURING THE SCHOOL DAY, please be sure to bring your ID (driver's license, military ID, or a photo ID). The month of December will be a trial period, and beginning January 2, 2025, it will be a requirement that anyone coming into the building during school day, MUST have a photo ID. Your cooperation in this additional layer of security is greatly appreciated.

There will not be a SMORE next week due to the short week. I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving break and enjoy time with family and friends.
