Free Immunizations--February 1, 2012
Franciscan Health System will provide free immunizations for students through the age of 18 on Wednesday, February 1, 2012, from 3:00-5:00 p.m. at Key Peninsula Middle School. A parent or guardian must accompany the student and bring the student's shot record to the immunization clinic.
Senior Salutes Will Be In Color
The PHS yearbook, KWAHAES, traditionally includes Senior Salutes (otherwise known as Senior Ads) in which parents honor their senior student(s) by submitting a favorite early-childhood picture with a short appreciation statement. This year the salute section will be in color, so we recommend the picture you submit be in color. The salute itself should be a few words with your message to your student. The cost is $35.
To be included we must receive a photo, text, and a check for $35 payable to Peninsula High School on or before Feb 11, 2011. You can drop these off with the bookkeeper or mail to: John Riebli; Peninsula High School; 14105 Purdy Dr NW; Gig Harbor, WA 98332. Read more
