Dismissal Protocols:

PHMS Student Dismissal Options:

Bus, Pick-Up or Walker

~The school does oversee bus transportation. If your child needs to take a different bus at the end of the day for child care purposes, we do require a note or email to the school. The request will need to be in writing. Once this is approved by administration, we will provide the student with a bus pass for that day.

~The school does not need to be informed regarding end of the day dismissal via "parent pick-up." This is an arrangement between the parent/guardian and the student.

~The school does not oversee student walkers. This is also an arrangement between the parent/guardian and the student.

*If you are requesting a permanent alternate bus change, you will need to fill out the Alternate Bus Form which is located in PowerSchool.

September Team-Building Field Trips

We are excited to announce our upcoming Team-Building Field Trips to Camp Jewell! Each grade level will spend a day participating in fun and engaging activities designed to strengthen communication, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. These experiences are especially important at PHMS, as middle school is the first time students from all four towns come together as one community.

Trip Dates:

  • 8th Grade – Mon., September 15

  • 7th Grade – Tues., September 16

  • 6th Grade – Mon., September 22

Permission slips will be sent home on Monday, September 8, along with more detailed information. We are thrilled to bring these opportunities for connection and community-building to our students!

Re: After-School Supervision for Student-Athletes

Dear PHMS Families,

We are excited to kick off our fall athletics season and look forward to cheering on our Bobcat student-athletes!

To support families, PHMS offers after-school supervision in the cafeteria until 4:00 PM for students whose practices do not begin right after dismissal. This option ensures students are safe and supervised while they wait.

A few important reminders:

  • Once checked in, students must remain in the cafeteria under staff supervision until practice begins.

  • Students are not permitted to leave the cafeteria, the building, or campus during this time.

  • Families may choose the option that works best: 

    1. Your child attends after-school supervision until practice begins.

    2. Your child leaves school at dismissal and reports directly to their practice at the scheduled time.

  • There is no supervision on early dismissal days

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us keep all students safe, supervised, and ready for their activities. Here’s to a great season ahead for all of our PHMS athletes!

Warmly,

Pam Vecca
