📣 Reminder for Pleasant Hill Students & Families! 📣
We are excited for our upcoming trip to the Arnoldsburg Molasses Festivalon Friday, 9/25/26. where all Pleasant Hill students will enjoy a day filled with fun activities, learning, and community celebration!
✅ If you have not already returned your permission form, please do so as soon as possible.
⚠️ Important Correction: There is a typo on the form regarding festival pick-up time. If you choose to pick your child up at the festival, student pick-up will be at 1:00 PM at the park.
📍 Parents/guardians picking up students should find Ms. Ballengee on the porch of the park building to sign their child out.
For safety and to ensure all students can fully participate in the field trip experience, students must remain with their class until they are officially signed out by a parent or guardian at 1:00pm.
👟🌦️ Please make sure your child wears weather-appropriate clothing and shoes. At this time, the ground is expected to be wet, so comfortable shoes suitable for muddy or damp conditions are recommended.
We are looking forward to a wonderful day at the Arnoldsburg Molasses Festival and appreciate your help in making this a fun and successful experience for all of our students! 💙💛🦅

Looking for ways to support your child’s learning at home?
Our elementary students are working hard on their social-emotional learning through the Second Step® program! Each week, students will bring home a Home Link activity. These quick, fun activities give you a peek into what they’re learning in class. These activities are designed for you and your child to complete together. They’re a wonderful way to connect, chat about their day, and reinforce the skills being taught in the lesson. Let’s help our students thrive both inside and outside the classroom!
Thank you!
