has made it onto this week's 10 hottest high school
athletes In the state of Washington list (from

 The Peninsula girls soccer team “played for the cure” in their first annual breast cancer fundraiser. The players and coaches donned pink jerseys for the game while collecting donations at the gate and well as donating all proceeds from the concession stand. Together, the game raised over $700 for breast cancer research. We are Peninsula Proud of our team for their passion to make a difference for others.

 The Peninsula High School Counseling Department has moved to grade level counseling to better support the needs of our students. Grade level counseling will enable each counselor to focus on the specific needs of each group of students as they travel through their four years of high school. Each counselor will remain with the specific “Class of” until graduation.

 The H1N1 (Swine) flu virus and the possible outbreaks of illness among children in school continue to be a concern. Our district works closely with the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department in providing guidelines to prevent the spread of the virus and in planning for the management of any outbreaks of the illness that may occur in our schools. Students are regularly reminded at school to use preventive measures to reduce the spread of illness, and we encourage parents to reinforce the same preventive measures at home.
