Hello Palomino Families,
We are experiencing issues with students throwing trash around in the restrooms, writing on the stall walls, and bringing their cellphones into the space. We kindly ask that you speak to your student(s) about being respectful of school property and being mindful of the privacy of others. Students caught making the restroom a mess or vandalizing will be given consequences. Cellphones should be zipped up inside backpack and not on their person; devices will be confiscated and sent to the office for parent/guardian pick up. Cellphones are only allowed out during lunches.
If you have any questions, please reach out to the Main Office. We thank you for your partnership!

Good evening Palomino Families,
This evening, a false message was posted on social media. The school and district were made aware of incident that was posted. At the time of the incident, the school followed the necessary protocols to address it, which included investigation by Banning Police Department.
Please have conversations with your student about responsible social media use as once something is screenshot, recorded, and posted online, the original posters never have control of the content.
If you have any questions please reach out to Dr. Thomas directly at 951-492-8819
