IMPORTANT: Early Release Wednesday Horseshoe Traffic Information
MDW CAR PICKUP
Families picking up MDW students should use the TWO OUTER LANES of the horseshoe, marked in RED on the attached graphic.
PJHS CAR PICKUP
Families picking up PJHS students should use the TWO INNER LANES of the horseshoe, marked in BLUE on the attached graphic.
HAVE STUDENTS AT BOTH MDW & PJHS?
Please use the MDW outer lanes marked in RED. This allows us to keep our younger Redskins with the MDW pickup process and provides the safest option for dismissal.
PLEASE STAY IN YOUR VEHICLE
Parents and guardians should remain in their vehicles throughout the pickup process. Our staff will help get students safely to the appropriate vehicles.
PULL ALL THE WAY FORWARD
When entering your pickup lane, please continue to pull as far forward as space allows. Leaving gaps in the horseshoe can quickly cause traffic to back up and prevent other families from entering the pickup area.
FOLLOW STAFF DIRECTION
We will have staff members outside helping direct vehicles and keep traffic moving. Please kindly follow their directions. This will help us safely load multiple students at once and give all families the opportunity to pick up their students as quickly and efficiently as possible.
⚠️ These instructions apply to the horseshoe during Early Release Wednesday dismissal only.
We know this is still a new process, and we appreciate everyone's patience, flexibility, and cooperation as we continue working out the details. A little teamwork from all of us will go a long way toward making dismissal safer, faster, and smoother for everyone!

🚨 IMPORTANT DISMISSAL NOTICE 🚨

❤️ THE FINAL CHAPTER | Generations of Redskins
For decades, these halls have welcomed generations of students, teachers, coaches, families, and friends.
The faces have changed. The classrooms have changed. The styles have definitely changed. But the memories made inside Pocahontas High School have become part of the story of our entire community.
As we begin what will be the final school year in our current PHS building, we're taking time to celebrate everything this building has represented before we prepare for the next chapter and a new Pocahontas High School.
Throughout this school year, The Final Chapter will take us back through the years as we celebrate the people, traditions, milestones, and moments that have made PHS what it is today.
We're honoring where we've been while looking forward to where we're going.
There are a lot of stories to tell. And we're just getting started. ❤️🤍

Our newest faculty and staff members recently completed Capturing Kids' Hearts (CKH) training, preparing them to join our district wide commitment to building strong relationships, creating positive learning environments, and helping every student feel connected and supported at school.
Capturing Kids' Hearts will continue to be a strong focus across Pocahontas School District this year. From greeting students and building relationships to creating Social Contracts together in the classroom, CKH helps establish a culture where students feel valued, respected, and ready to learn.
Parents and families, we encourage you to be part of the conversation! Ask your student about their classroom Social Contract. What did their class decide was important? What words did they choose? What does it look like in their classroom?
CKH is more than a program—it's about creating a culture of connection and belonging throughout PSD. ❤️🤍
