Dear Prospect Hill Families,
Welcome to the 2018-19 school year! I hope you enjoyed a summer vacation filled with fun and exciting memories with family and friends. We are excited to welcome all of you back to a new school year of learning and growing. Personally, I am grateful to continue this journey with you as your principal. Over the past year, I have had a chance to meet many of you and your children, and look forward to continue building a strong relationship with all of you in the upcoming year.
The website should provide you with additional information about our routines, procedures and academics. If you need to contact me feel free to email me at jcarr@pelhamschools.org. We are looking forward to a successful school year.

Making connections, we feel at home at school -
Fourth and fifth graders at Prospect Hill School worked to raise $9,265 for the American Heart Association through the annual Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser. Each year, the physical education teachers at each elementary school organize the event, in which students collect sponsors and donations before jumping rope to raise funds and awareness. The money that is raised goes to help children with heart-health issues. In addition to the fundraiser, the students develop healthy habits and learn about the value of community service. In total, the four schools combined to raise more than $25,000! View more photos from the event on the District's Facebook page.
