💛Today's PHS Parade!🖤
We are excited to share the parade route for today’s PHS parade! All feeder schools will be participating. All students and families are welcome to sit along the route to enjoy the parade. Chairs and umbrellas are recommended, as it tends to get hot, and you’ll want a comfortable spot to watch the parade.
Only students who have submitted permission slips to walk in the parade will be allowed to participate, along with adult supervision.
Please note that the police department will close access to the streets 30 minutes before the parade starts. The parade begins at 6:30 PM and will last about an hour.
A big thank you to all the students and families participating in today’s parade! We appreciate your involvement and look forward to seeing everyone there! 🖤💛
