Pembroke High School will add Project Lead The Way programs to provide hands-on, applied learning and in-depth teacher professional development.
To ensure student achievement through excellence in teaching and learning.
Parents will be automatically notified if their child is marked absent during Titan Homeroom (7:20-7:30 am). Parents are encouraged to call the school to make us aware if your child will be absent. Even if a parent calls the school to report an absence, parents will still receive an automated absence call later that morning (parents can just disregard the call).
Breakfast and lunch will continue to be free for all students for the 2022-2023 school year. Water can be purchased.
The menu can be found here.
Students have been reminded about cell phones being put away and out of sight. There is no cell phone use during the school day. If students need to get in contact with their parents, they should ask their teacher for permission or come to the office to use the phone. Students caught using their cell phones will have to turn them into the office for pick up at the end of the school day.
A printable version of the District Calendar is located under the Students & Families dropdown menu.
Students’ first day is Wednesday, August 31. School starts at 7:20. Students will spend the first hour of their day with their Titan Teacher. They also have another block of time near their lunch block when they will be in their Titan Study. During these two blocks, Titan Teachers will review procedures, get students linked to their classes in Google Classroom, show them where their classes are located, assign Chromebooks, and other “housekeeping” items. Students will rotate through all seven periods throughout their day, although classes will be slighter shorter than normal.
Visit the Homeschooling Section of our website for the requirements and application process.
Almost all of our school communications will be managed electronically. You should already be signed up to automatically receive our E-News through the registration process. We also recommend you ‘like’ our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/PembrokeCommunityMiddleSchool/).
After-school buses will begin next week on September 13. There will be after-school buses on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Buses pick up students at 3:30. This allows student-athletes a way to get home after practice. The after-school buses also allow students who join clubs or other after-school activities a way to get home. Students must have a bus pass to ride the late bus.
Lockers: Students will be assigned a Titan Time (home-based) locker. Students can lease combination locks from the school. Only locks leased from the school may be used on school lockers. Combination locks can be leased for $5/year. The leasing money will be returned when students return the locks at the end of the school year. Students should not use any tape on their lockers. If they would like to hang their schedule or other pictures, they should use magnets. Any drinks stored in lockers must have a twist top, so there is no danger of spillage.
We have several new additions to our staff this year. We are excited to welcome
Ms. Evan Fitzwiliam (Team 7.1 Social Studies), Mr. Mark Matheson (Team 8.2 ELA), Mrs. Allison DeBellis (G8 Stem Lab), Mrs. Brittany Desmond (Special Education), and Ms. Rachael Coppenrath (Special Education/Reading Specialist). Mrs. Cheryl Larson is the new PCMS social worker; many of you may be familiar with her, as she previously worked at Bryantville Elementary School and North Pembroke Elementary School.
PCMS students will have an opportunity to sign up for Chorus (no prior experience needed) or Orchestra (instrument experience needed) within the first few weeks of school. Mrs. Gwynne Chapman (Chorus 7 & 8) and Mr. Greg Tarbox (Orchestra 7 & 8) will be teaching these enrichment courses. Orchestra and Chorus will be offered to students 1-2x week during Titan Study, so adding in these courses does not change/impact student schedules. More information will be shared after the start of school.
Information on the PCMS clubs we’ll be offering this year will be sent out within the next few weeks. Clubs are free and meet 1x/week after school on either Mondays, Tuesdays, or Thursdays.
PCMS Cross Country: PCMS students can sign up for the fall cross country team. The cost is $50/runner. Practices will be starting September 12. The team will compete against other area teams. Students with a bus pass will be able to take the late buses home. Registration links can be found on the Athletics Department website.

If you have already purchased a bus pass, you should receive it before the start of school. If you have not purchased a pass yet and would like your child to ride the bus, please contact Lori Jacobs, the Transportation Coordinator (lori.jacobs@pembrokek12.org; 781-829-0832).
Parents who drive their 7th-grade children to school should use the circular driveway or a loop around the staff parking lot for drop off/pick up. Seventh-grade students can wait in the cafeteria or outside the main doors until the start of school.
Parents who are dropping off eighth-grade students should loop around the back of the school and drop their children off near the basketball courts. Eighth-grade students can wait out near the basketball court or in the gym until the start of school. Students should be dropped off as close to start time to reduce waiting. If students do not have time to eat before leaving for school, they can get a grab & go breakfast outside the cafeteria. Families dropping off both 7th and 8th graders can drop them off at the main doors. These eighth-grade students should then proceed to the gym to wait for the start of school.
We will use the same traffic patterns for afternoon dismissal and pick-ups at 2:10pm.
Parents should review and update their child’s medical and emergency contact information prior to the first day of school. Families should have received a snapcode link in their email that will allow families to update this information. The email with the "Snapcode" comes from the sender, PowerSchool Registration Support, with the email "noreplyregistration@powerschool.com". If you have not gotten an email, try checking the spam folders for the sender above. If you did not receive this link, please contact the school and we will resend it.
