COUNSELING CORNER
Has your family filled out the application for free/reduced lunch for the 2024/2025 school year? This application needs to be completed every year. Having free/reduced lunch status allows your student to apply to some colleges for free, access SAT fee waivers, and sometimes access additional financial supports for Running Start.
Here is a link to fill out the form:
Please contact your school counselor if you have any questions.

Attention Students Driving to the Pierce County Skills Center (PCSC):
We understand that the current schedule means all PCSC students arrive late to 3rd period. However, if you drive to PCSC, it's important that you return no later than the students who ride the bus. Excessive tardiness beyond this could result in losing your driving privilege. Let’s be mindful of our time and keep this option available for everyone. Thank you for your cooperation!
Parent Pick-Up Traffic Flow Reminder
Parents, we understand that the pick-up line can sometimes feel overwhelming, but it moves faster than it looks! To help keep things running smoothly, please use the designated parent pick-up area to the right of the PAC parking lot. Following the traffic flow indicated in the image will make the process much more efficient for everyone.
If you pull into the PAC parking lot on the left side, you will get stuck behind the buses, which load and exit near the tennis courts. This will result in delays, as you’ll need to wait for the buses to exit before you can leave.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation in keeping the pick-up process smooth and safe for all our students.
