We are excited to share that our student t-shirts, generously sponsored by our PTO, have arrived just in time for our trip to the Molasses Festival this Friday!
To help ensure every student has their shirt to wear on field trip day, we will be keeping the shirts at school until Friday morning. We know how busy those mornings can be, and we're hoping to avoid any "Oops, we forgot it at home!" moments.
A huge THANK YOU to BeSpoke Designs for working with us and creating an awesome design that our students and staff will be proud to wear!
We can't wait to see our Eagles showing their school spirit as we head to the festival! 💙💛🦅
Accessibility Description: Graphic features Pleasant Hill Elementary spirit shirts in blue and gold, sponsored by the PTO, with a thank-you message to BeSpoke Designs and a reminder that shirts will be distributed at school before the Molasses Festival field trip.

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! 💙💛🦅

At Pleasant Hill, we LOVE when our students show up! ❤️ Attendance is one of the leading factors in student success, and we want to celebrate those students who make being present a priority each day.
Every Monday we will place the names of all students who had perfect attendance during the previous week onto a random prize wheel. We will spin the wheel and select one winner from each grade level to earn a spot in the “Eagles Nest” for outstanding attendance that week! 🦅✨
Keep showing up, working hard, and soaring high, Eagles! We can’t wait to recognize more students throughout the year.
