Dear Families of the Class of 2026,

It's almost time to schedule senior portraits!

All yearbook portraits must be taken by Keane Studios. Please plan to contact them in June to schedule a sitting this summer.

You should have received an email from Keane with information about booking senior portraits. However, if you opted out of sharing information with third-party partners during the PHS Continuing Student Online Registration, you will not receive this email. In that case, you’ll need to contact Keane Studios directly and create an account at:

https://www.keaneseniors.com/book-session

We want every senior featured in the yearbook, so please make sure to schedule your portrait session soon!

Note: Keane is offering a $10 off promotion that ends in August.

Get a head start and purchase your 2026 yearbook now at the special price of $70—before the price goes up in September!

Yearbooks are available now through the PUSD Community Web Store and will also be available for purchase in person at the Finance Office once school starts.

Don’t miss out—reserve your copy today!

Cafeteria account balances carry over from one school year to the next and between school sites as long as your student remains in PUSD. If you had a graduating senior or a student leaving the District, you can request a refund of your unused balance or transfer the funds to a different meal account. Instructions and the Refund/Transfer Request Form are available on the PUSD Food and Nutrition webpage.
