**Attention Seniors**
Parking spot forms are available in the admin office from 8-3pm, Monday - Friday. Forms must be completely filled out and signed before you can pay for your spot. Parking spot sales will begin on 8/9/22, 8am-Noon on a first come first serve basis. More procedural details will be sent out about 8/9 soon. All parking spots are $50, which goes to help cover the cost of the paint to recover the spot in the summer. Juniors and anyone else who want a spot can pick up their form, but cannot purchase one until all Seniors have had their opportunity. That will be announced at a later date. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Lawrence at 304-420-9595 or at kaleb.lawrence@k12.wv.us . Thank you and have a good evening.

We have heard public concerns and received questions concerning Parkersburg High School’s proposed cell phone policy. As of now, those changes will not happen.
Parkersburg High School will continue to follow Wood County Schools policy 5114.11: Communication/Electronic Devices. Cell phone use will be allowed before and after school and during a student’s designated lunch period. The full policy can be found at https://tinyurl.com/WCSPolicies .
We will continue to listen to our entire school community to determine the best way forward on how to address the challenges electronics can present in classrooms and on campus. We want to work with parents, guardians, teachers, staff and students to make PHS the best it can be for everyone.
Thank you for your patience and support,
