INFORMATION FOR PARENTS & STUDENTS
Our school will participate in the Healthy Youth Survey this Fall.
The survey asks questions about risks for injury, health outcomes, and alcohol and drug use. Schools, and state
and local agencies use survey results to support our youth and reduce their risks. The Healthy Youth Survey is
voluntary and anonymous and provides important information to guide policy and programs that serve our youth.
Welcome back to an exciting new school year! 🎉 As we dive into the 2023-2024 academic journey, let's talk about something important – school attendance. 🏫
Even a few missed days, even if they're excused, can lead to lost learning time. Whether your child is in kindergarten or high school, every day matters. 📅
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow
Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month
From September 15 to October 15, we proudly join the nation in honoring the incredible contributions of Hispanic Americans to our rich cultural tapestry.

At PSD, we're committed to fostering a warm and inclusive learning environment where the beauty of all cultures is celebrated and embraced. 🌍❤️✏️
Let's take this opportunity to learn, appreciate, and share in the stories, traditions, and history that make up the Hispanic American experience.

It's Food Bowl Week! 🎒🍎
Every year, during the week leading up to Fish Bowl, our incredible PSD community comes together to make a difference. 🤝 The Food Bowl competition is underway, where students and families unite to donate food to our community partner, Food Backpacks 4 Kids.
Food Backpacks 4 Kids is a lifeline for families in need in our district, providing them with backpacks filled with food and essential supplies, along with valuable resources.
This year's competition is fierce, featuring Gig Harbor High School, Peninsula High School, and Henderson Bay High School. The ultimate goal? Winning the Food Bowl title and trophy for the year! 🏆
To support your school and help make a positive impact, here's how you can participate:
🥣 Drop off your food donations this week at your school.
🐟 Or bring your donation to Fish Bowl on Friday, Sept. 15.
🥫 For this year's Food Bowl, Food Backpacks 4 Kids is requesting:
•Granola bars
•Trail mix
•Oatmeal packets
•Canned tuna
•Single-pack goldfish
•Instant potatoes
Let's show our community's strength and generosity! Together, we can make a huge difference.
As a community, let us come together on this Patriot Day to remember and honor the lives lost in the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
On this day, we reflect on the resilience, courage, and unity that emerged in the face of adversity.
Let's take a moment to appreciate the first responders, our brave men and women in uniform, and all those who work tirelessly to keep our communities safe.
At PSD, we encourage everyone to use this day as an opportunity to promote kindness, unity, and understanding among our students and within our community.
