Homecoming Festivities...

This year's Homecoming at Paul V. Moore High School (Friday October 5) has grown significantly from previous years and includes more community groups, which we absolutely love opportunities for the District to connect with our community partners. While the actual parade starts at 5:30 pm, all of the participants with start getting lined up at 4:20 pm. This event should be fun for the entire family, so please come out and support our students! 

Safety Upgrades at Redhawk Stadium 

For safety purposes beginning October 5, 2018, backpacks will no longer be allowed in the Redhawk Stadium.  We have had backpacks left in the aisles of the bleachers and in the grassy areas, which are a safety hazard.  We have had situations where students brought in electronic cigarettes and other illegal paraphernalia in their backpacks, which is another reason to not allow backpacks into the stadium.  We recognize that there are students that normally come from their own sports or band practices and have a backpack with equipment or an instrument with them, and we will be able to accommodate those students by allowing them to keep their backpack and/or instrument in a locked room in the stadium.  Another safety measure taken , we will no longer allow students to congregate on the grass areas unless they are accompanied by a parent/guardian.  Students without a guardian will be instructed to sit on the bleachers.  If we have a contest and our bleachers exceed capacity, we will allow students to sit on the hill but we will use ample supervision in those situations on the grassy areas.  Another safety measure we have taken is that we are no longer allowing spectators  to throw balls or any other objects during the game.  If students are throwing objects around, they will be confiscated.  Also, if students leave the stadium during the contest, they will not be allowed to re-enter the stadium.  We do not want students to come to the stadium where there is supervision and then leave the stadium to go to parts of the school grounds or off school grounds where there is no supervision and then re-enter the stadium, while their parents/guardians are left to believe that their students are in the stadium the entire time.  These are safety measures that we have been discussing for several months, and we feel that it is important to implement them at this time.  Thank you for your support and continuing to keep our students safe.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
