3/14 — Spring FestA few gentle reminders as the weather changes: please support dress code expectations. The items we continue to see are hoodies, missing IDs, and headphones. These impact campus safety. Hoodies are not allowed, IDs must be worn at all times, and headphones/earbuds should not be worn on campus. We are launching a friendly class competition (by 1st block) for best dress-code compliance — the winning class will earn a prize. Teachers will also use Canes Cash to reinforce expectations.
Parking-lot safety reminder: students should park in the back lot unless they have permission to park in the front. Carpool should use the front lane — please remain in the carpool line and do not wait for students in the lot, as this creates safety risks for pedestrians and moving vehicles.
Thank you again for your continued support. We look forward to another busy and wonderful week at PVHS.
Sincerely,
Courtney Mancuso
Parents,
A quick, kind reminder to please use the carpool lane at the front of the school for drop-off and pick-up. For safety reasons, do not stop in the front or back parking lots—vehicles are moving in those areas and we want to keep all students safe. I know waiting in the carpool line can take a little longer, and I truly appreciate your patience and cooperation.
Thank you for your support,
Courtney Mancuso

Warm wishes,
Courtney Mancuso
