Articulation UPDATE!: We need course selections for the 23/24 school year by tomorrow, March 3. Check out the link to the elective catalog: PBMS Electives
California School Parent Survey: This survey is given to ALL California parents. The goal is 100% completion rate. So far, PBMS has a 12% completion rate. Please take a few moments to provide feedback by March 24. Data is then shared with schools in the summer to help make PBMS a better, safer space. Please click on this link to complete the state survey. https://wested.ugam-apps.com/wed/ts/p1lq.

Each position includes benefits. For more information including a complete job description , please click HERE. If you decide to apply, email me at [email protected] to start the interview process.
Awards: Please accept our sincerest apologies for the misprint on one of the certificates. New certificates will be sent home with students this week.
SANDAG - Great news! Youth 18 and under in the San Diego region can keep riding transit for free through June 2024, with unlimited rides on all the buses, trollies, and trains in the region. It’s been amazing to hear how kids and teens are using this program to get to school on time, home from activities, get to doctor’s appointments, see friends and family, and more! Do you know a young person that still needs a free youth transit pass? Visit SANDAG.org/YouthOpportunityPass to learn how they can sign up.
Save the Date: FOPBSS would love for you to join them at their spring fundraiser on Saturday, March 18 from 6-10 at the Mission Bay Yacht Club. You can purchase tickets from the FOPBSS website: fopbss.org/shenanigans or scan the QR code in this LINK. We hope to see you there!
Community Safety: We need your help to keep our community safe. Please review your safety expectations for your child coming to and leaving school. Include your behavior expectations at parks, the rec center and shops in PB. In addition, if you see something illegal/unsafe around our campus after hours, please call the San Diego Police Department at 619-531-2000.
Low Cost Computers: The San Diego County Office of Education and Computers2Kids are hosting an event for families to purchase affordable computers on Saturday, March 4 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Kearny High School @ 1954 Komet Way, San Diego CA 92111. See this flyer for details.
PBMS Covid Testing: COVID testing can now be done at home. We have testing kits available for pick up in the administration office (2 covid test kits per student). Please report to the school if your child tests positive. All positive home test results should be reported to the school nurse and the self reporting tool.District contact tracing and case management for students and staff will continue until further notice.
Feedback: If you have questions or concerns, please contact me via email at [email protected] or Mr. Sobel, Associate Principal, at [email protected]. We will connect you with someone who can help or assist you ourselves. Again, we strive to create a space where students want to come to school, staff want to come to work and parents want to send their children. Take care.
