Luca
is SAFE, KIND, and FOCUSED everyday when he enters the cafeteria. He walks in quietly, waits patiently in line, and listens to adults respectfully. Thank you, Luca!
Aubrey
was caught being KIND when she waited for a friend so they could walk in together from the car drop off line. Thank you for being kind, Aubrey!
Tooth Protectors is coming for their second visit this year on:
March 27th, 2025
Our school is partnering with Tooth Protectors, Inc. to offer preventative dental care for Students and Staff WITH or WITHOUT dental insurance. Services are FREE to those with MaineCare (age 1-100). Fees are included on this Attached Flyer for those who are self-pay. Tooth Protectors can bill other Dental Insurance, but currently DO NOT accept: Harvard, Pilgrim, Humana, or Martin's Point.
If your child participated earlier in the year, nothing needs to be done unless
you do not want your child to attend the second session. Please reach out to
Nurse Dorice with any questions.
(dgroshon@scarboroughschools.org or 207.730.5286)
If your child did not participate in the program earlier this year and you would like
to sign them up for this second session-

or fill out the On-line Permission Form
Our school calendar allows for 2 traditional snow day cancellations. After those 2 days, all subsequent school closure days will be remote learning days. The district has created a website (www.scarboroughschools.org/district/weather-closures) to make it easier for families to access information about school closure and to plan accordingly.
Each phase level has a plan for students that can be accessed on the website (K2 Phase Level Remote Learning Plan for Snow/Inclement Weather Days linked here). Non-perishable meals are available in advance. Please fill out this form (also located on the website) to receive this support. Please reach out with any questions about snow days or remote learning days.
Now that we have had two official snow days, future inclement weather days will be remote learning days for students. Remote learning packets have been sent home. Please keep this packet in a safe place, and reserve it for upcoming remote learning days. The packet is available on the website listed above as well.
NOW is the time to get volunteer trained! This is REQUIRED for anyone who wants to volunteer, chaperone a field trip, or visit your child's classroom.
Trainings will be held monthly, and you only need to be trained ONCE during your time here at Pleasant Hill School. If you are unsure if you have received training yet, you can always check with the front office at 207-730-5250. If it turns out you have already taken the training, we will send you the updated confidentiality link, which you are required to sign ANNUALLY.

Monday, March 3, 12:00 pm
Training is 20 minutes in length.

Communication with the Main Office
Absence Reporting:
We ask families to report their child's absence from school by calling the main office at 207-730-5250 or by email at phoffice@scarboroughschools.org. When leaving a message, we ask that you state the reason for the absence, otherwise, office staff will reach back out to you for that information.
Excusable reasons for an absence:
- illness
- appointment
- religious holiday
- family emergency
- planned absence
For Planned Absences (a day out of school which is not illness or medical appointment related), families should fill out the PH Planned Absence Form. To reduce lost instructional time, we ask families to do their best to coordinate vacations so they line up with our scheduled school vacation weeks.
For questions about attendance, please contact the main office at 207-730-5250 or email us at phoffice@scarboroughschools.org
Please remember to order student lunches!
For breakfast meals in all of our schools, you can order online on the same day before 6:30 AM, while for lunch meals, you can order online on the same day before 7:30 AM. You can order meals for the day, or set up a weekly or monthly plan for meals to be provided to your children. The menus for all meals for a new month will be posted on the school’s website and on the Nutrislice app the last Monday at the end of the previous month.
