FAQ
What are service hours and how many do I need?
Every PHS student needs 40 hours of community service hours to graduate. We believe that helping those outside our immediate families creates more compassionate adults. See the Guidance page for more information.
How do lunches work at PHS?
PHS has two lunch sessions. During a normal year we have school lunch and a la carte options on campus and upperclassmen can leave campus during their lunch hour. This year with COVID-19, we have a closed campus at lunch to all students. To pay or add money to your lunch account, please go to the Food Services page.
