Hand Lotion: Please make sure your student(s) are using hand lotion at home due to the fact that in our increase in hand washing and sanitizing, we are seeing a lot of chapped and dry hands. If anyone would like to bring in hand lotion for their students, please feel free to do so. We are using a lot of it at school also.
Breakfast and Lunch Cost Changes: Due to a new offering from the State of Missouri, all students at PHS will receive a free breakfast and lunch. Students will still be charged for any extra’s they eat. A small extra is .75 and a large extra is $1.00. The free breakfasts and lunches started on Sept. 10th and will now continue until the end of the school year.
Student Pick-Up: If you need to change your student’s plans for the end of the day (they will be picked up, need to ride a different bus, etc.) please call the school office before 1:00 p.m. to make those changes.
Medication: All medication, both over-the-counter as well as prescription, must be given to the school health aide. Serious consequences may result if a student is found with any drugs including over the counter or prescription. First offense may result in 10 days of O.S.S. Over-the-counter or prescription drugs may not be kept in purses, pockets, book bags, lockers or anywhere else on school grounds. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Simmons at 660-841-5296.
Food Service: Please be sure and keep your student’s Food Service accounts up to date. Account balance summaries will be sent home every Friday (if your student has a negative balance it will be in parentheses). If a student’s balance is negative, they will not be allowed “extras”. If your student’s balance falls negative more than $5.00, they will be eating a cheese sandwich (for which they will not be charged) and milk (for which they will be charged.)
