Pleasant Hill Elementary School

As we are getting ready for the 2023/24 school year I would like to share a few reminders with you. Immunizations need to be up to date for all new enterers this includes PK and K. Immunizations for 7th and 12th graders need to be up to date this includes the TDap and Menectra requirements. If your student requires an emergency medication ( this includes but is not limited to inhalers, seizure meds, epi pens and glucagon) I need to have the order from your health care provider and the medication in hand on or before the first day of school. It is a safety issue for your student for these medications/orders to not be on hand. I will be available at the back to school bash if you have any questions or want to bring medications for CMHS to me. School based health has been available for immunizations please call 354-9732 or your regular health care provider to make an appointment if necessary.

With the 2022-23 school year coming to an end, as the Communities In Schools Coordinator at Pleasant Hill Elementary, I want to thank all of the students, staff, and parents for a great year and a huge thank you to the parents for allowing their child/ children to be a part of Communities In Schools. This year I have built wonderful relationships with families, students, and staff and this program would not be successful without you. I am looking forward to next school year and working with all of you again. Pleasant Hill fourth graders you will be missed. I want to wish you all the best of luck as you move up to Calhoun Middle school. You all will do great things and always remember the sky is the limit. I hope you all have a safe and fun-filled summer. Miss Carrie CIS Coordinator

Good morning, You may hear students talking about the our new alert system today. Calhoun County School is in the final stages of testing the system, provided by the COPS Grant, in our schools. This system will allow quicker response times for schools and first responders in case of an emergency. Evaluation of the system is starting, to ensure all the settings and various announcements are working.

Join us at any of the following locations.

Reminder for all Pre-k parents. If you still have a Red Reader Bag (Save the Children) please send them back in this week.

This is a reminder to all 4th Grade students. Tomorrow, May 11th, they will be visiting Calhoun Middle High School for Move Up Day.
