Principal's Message

Welcome to Piedmont Hills High School!

Dear Piedmont Hills High School Students and Families,

I am thrilled to welcome you to a new school year at Piedmont Hills High School (PHHS)! As the new principal, it is an honor to continue my journey in this incredible community, where I’ve spent the last eight years serving as both Associate Principal of Educational Development and Associate Principal of Administration. These roles have given me a deep appreciation for our school's strengths, as well as insight into areas where we can grow and evolve.

I’ve witnessed firsthand the passion, talent, and dedication of our students, staff, and families, and it is these qualities that make PHHS such a vibrant and inspiring place for learning and personal growth. I am excited to lead a school that is rooted in a tradition of excellence, commitment, and community spirit.

I believe strongly in the Pirate Way, and that as an entire school community, we all need to be Problem Solvers, Independent Thinkers, Responsible Individuals, Adaptable Learners, Technologically Competent, and Effective Communicators. At Piedmont Hills, we promise these common assurances in all facets of the school:

• You are truly welcomed as you are.

• Your strengths and areas of growth are known and supported.

• Adults positively respond to the social-emotional, wellness, and academic needs of every student

To our students, I encourage you to embrace the challenges and opportunities ahead. Get involved in your classes, join clubs or sports teams, and make the most of the resources available to you. High school is a time to explore your interests, pursue your passions, and create lasting friendships.

To our families, your support is essential to our success. I invite you to stay connected with us through our events and communications. Your partnership is invaluable in helping us provide the best possible education for your children.

Communication and collaboration are at the heart of our shared success. If you ever have questions, concerns, or ideas, I am here to listen and work alongside you. Together, by fostering open communication and celebrating our diversity, we can create a supportive environment where every student is empowered to succeed.

Here’s to an incredible year ahead at PHHS!

Warm regards,
Nancy Pereira
