We had another amazing Community Paint night hosted by Ms. Kahrs. It was great to see retirees, community members, current and former students and a Board of Education member there. Big thanks to PTO for providing snacks. It was a wonderful night!
Our students had a great time at the fourth annual NYSPHAA student leadership conference in Albany. Along with hundreds of other student-athletes from around the state we learned about topics like: life beyond the game, getting to where you want to be in life through service and building respect between athletes and officials. Kylie was part of the presenting team, as one of her Student Athletic Advisory Committee duties.

PHCS Driver Education – Summer 2026
https://bit.ly/phdriver26
Learning to drive is an important life skill, and this course will give you a strong foundation of safe driving habits, road knowledge, and behind-the-wheel confidence. Completing the course also allows you to drive at night starting at age 17 instead of 18 and may reduce your car insurance costs.
Eligibility
You must hold a valid NYS learner's permit or driver's license by July 20th, 2026 to participate. The course is free for PHCS students.
Course Requirements
The course runs for four weeks from July 20th through August 14th and requires sixteen 90-minute classroom sessions and sixteen 90-minute driving sessions (24 hours each), per state regulations. Classes will meet Monday through Thursday mornings; driving lessons are scheduled individually four times per week Monday through Saturday. All scheduled sessions are mandatory.
How to Apply
Review the schedule with a parent or guardian before completing this form — attendance is mandatory and there is very limited ability to make up missed sessions. Please submit this form by April 17th. Enrollment is limited to 20 students, with priority given to PHCS students. Out-of-district students may apply for remaining spots and will be charged a fee if accepted into the program; the Guidance Office will contact accepted students to arrange payment.
Submitting this form indicates interest only — students will be notified of their acceptance status by May 1st. Use the link below for the form.

Well done to these Highschool students representing PHCS at the 2026 Art Showcase and Competition, presented by the Norwood Lake Association and the NNCS Art Club.
Last week, PHCS third and fourth graders got to try out real instruments at an "instrument petting zoo" hosted by the Crane School of Music! Students from Crane's Music Education program were on hand to demonstrate and guide our young musicians as they explored instruments from the brass, woodwind, string, and percussion families. It was a fun, hands-on introduction to the world of music — and a great way to help them find their perfect fit when they join the band program in 5th grade!
PHCS will be dismissing at 11:30 today. There will be no PM Boces and no after school activities. This includes Kid's Night Out and All Paws. Please contact the Main Office if you have to make changes for your childs drop off location. Thank you.
