PBJHS Pom Squad Tryouts

Cardinals Game Field Trip
Students who sold 10 or more items in the fall fundraiser will go to the Cardinals game on May 8th as a reward. Permission letters will go home this week!
ACADEMIC LABS
Academic lab time is a time for students to work on homework and get help from teachers. It is not a time to roam the halls, hang out in the bathroom or head down to a different lunch hour. Students are expected to remain in class during this time. If students need to leave the class for any reason, a hall pass should be used or a teacher pass issued by the teacher. Students who do not check in to academic lab or who are found to not be where they are supposed to be will be written up for being truant.
CLOTHING CHOICES
Please check short length, shirt coverage, and any other possible clothing issue (like holes in your pant legs) prior to coming to school. We have had to have students change already! Dress appropriately for school!
PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION (PDA)With spring in the air it seems like love is too! However, there is a time and place for all things, and school is not the time or place for any public displays of affection (PDA). This includes girls holding hands with their friends and hugging each other as well. Please keep this in check!
MORNING RESTROOM AND/OR VENDING MACHINE USE
For your safety and knowing your location for supervision, the gym lobby restroom is available to use before school. Also, the vending machine in the lobby is for your use prior to dismissal from the gym. All other bathrooms and vending machines in the building are off limits prior to dismissal from the gym.
