Open to students in grades K–8, this clinic will give participants the opportunity to learn how to turn, twirl, and toss from members of PHS Dance, Majorette, and Color Guard!
This will be a wonderful experience for students to get a firsthand look at the opportunities available to them at the high school level while having the chance to try these activities for themselves.
The clinic will take place after school December 7–10 from 3:15–4:45 p.m. On Friday, students will showcase what they've learned in a special performance for friends and family in the PHS Auditorium!

It’s the message at the heart of the Love Like Lexi Project, which helps students recognize their worth, find hope, and build connections as they navigate life’s challenges.
We encourage all Pelham City Schools parents to make plans to attend the Love Like Lexi Parent Assembly:
📅 Tuesday, October 20
🕡 6:30 PM
📍 Pelham Park Middle School Gym
The evening will focus on suicide prevention awareness, mental wellness, and ways parents can be a positive source of support for their children. It’s an opportunity to learn more, ask questions, and strengthen the conversations and connections that help our children feel supported.
The parent assembly is open to parents from all PCS schools, regardless of where their children attend. PPMS students will attend a separate student assembly on October 21.
Join us as we work together to help our students know they matter and have people they can turn to.
