Principal's Message

It's hard to believe it but we have already completed the first month of the school year! We are off to a strong start. Our new initiatives are in full swing. For example, SmartPass is working and translating into increased efficiency and instructional time. Our attendance remains high. We ended the last week of September with a weekly attendance average of 96.4%! Tardies remain low as traffic to and from our school is moving a little smoother thanks to the PPPD who have been doing a great job keeping our students safe and traffic moving along. Please continue to listen to their directions and pull up to the top of the hill when dropping off your children.

New Dual Enrollment Partnership with Ramapo College

PPHS has partnered with Ramapo College of New Jersey for the 24-25 SY. This Dual Enrollment partnership will offer our students an opportunity to earn college credit while taking courses right here at PPHS during their regular school day schedule.
