Attention Seniors and Parents: PHS will be hosting FAFSA Night on Monday, December 16, from 5:30 to 7:00 in the PHS Library. FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid that is required to be completed by students to receive any federal grants or student loans. Many colleges and technical schools also required a student’s FAFSA to be on file in order to award them any scholarships, so it is very important that students complete the FAFSA in a timely manner. The first important step of the FAFSA is completing the FAFSA ID. Students and Parents must have a FSA ID created 3 days before they begin working on the FAFSA. See documents below for information and we look forward to seeing you there. Please contact Mrs. Evans sdevans@pisd.us if you have any questions.
Spirit Month at PHS is underway! Join us in dressing in your most festive attire through the month of December! *All attire must remain compliant with school dress code*
Thanksgiving Lunch at PHS will be held on Wednesday, November 20th during both lunches. Visitors are welcome to pre-purchase meal tickets for $6 in the front office and fill out the Google form below to have a visitor's ID pre-printed and ready for the date of the event.
