If you have not yet filled in your back-to-school forms and reviewed the important back-to-school information from the district, please visit the Pickerington Schools Back-To-School page for 2018.

Dear Panther Students and Parents/Guardians,

It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you and your child to the 2018-2019 school year.  The custodial staff, teachers and office personnel have been diligently working over the summer months in preparation for what should be an outstanding year.  We hope that you and your child find the environment at PHSN as Respectful, Responsible, Inclusive and Safe.

To the incoming Freshman Class of 2022, I say welcome! As our class of 2019 knows, your high school years will go quickly. I would like to challenge all of our students to set goals and become involved to make every day count. We are fortunate to have many outlets for our students to grow and represent our school and community academically, artistically and athletically. Make it a goal to be involved at PHSN.

I encourage you to visit the district’s website for important information. I will send out a weekly “Message from the Principal” to review and update you on important events. The majority of our communication will be delivered via Infinite Campus. Please visit your parent portal to ensure all directory information is up to date. You can also follow me on twitter @mr_ulbrich and PHSN on Facebook.

This year our Panther Welcome Days will take place Tuesday, August 7, and Wednesday, August 8. We will be distributing class schedules. Emergency forms should be completed and dropped off during Welcome Days.

It is very important to attend the Panther Welcome Days because it helps to make everyone prepared for the first day of school with minimal disruption. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we will see you on August 7 and 8 for Panther Welcome Days and August 15 for the first day of school.

Best Wishes,

Mark Ulbrich

Principal
