Friends of Placer High School of Auburn, CA is a non profit organization whose primary objective is to promote student welfare in the home, school, and community through the cooperative effort of parents, students, teachers and members of the community. We do this by supporting programs that strengthen communication, provide volunteer support, and through financial assistance that enhances, enriches and supplements district approved activities.

Our meetings are held the first Wednesday of every month.  Everyone is welcome to attend!

May Announcements:

  • For the Senior Parents-Grad Night letter click here.
  • The Grad Night committee really needs help decorating on Friday June 7 and Saturday June 8.  This is a call to all under class parents- please come help, even if it’s just for a few hours here and there.  Bring your friends, family, past graduates, etc.  We won’t turn away any help!

Message from our President….

It is that time of year to say good-bye to parents that have meant a lot to the Friends of Placer High School parent organization.  Julie Lardner has been the board secretary for many years and has been a big part of this parent organization helping with many activities at the school.    We wish her well as she starts a new chapter in her life. We will miss her!

If you want to be a part of a great group of parents we have some openings for next year’s board or just come to the meetings and hear what we are all about.  Next year the following positions are open on the board:

  • SCRIP Coordinator
  • Grad Night Committee
  • Vice President

As we wrap up the year, we start to look forward to the next year and setting our fundraising goals to support the teacher wish lists, sports, art, welding and much more.  We have already started the planning for our next fundraiser  “Casino Night on the Hill”  that is scheduled for November 16th at The Power Club.  So mark it on your calendar and look for more information to be sent via email, posted on our website and/or in the newsletter beginning in August.

Thank you again to all the parents who supported Friends of Placer High School this year and we look forward to seeing you next year.

Sincerely,

Kim Lightfoot

Wow- it was great to see some new faces at our January FOPHS meeting! THANK YOU to all the new parents who attended. I hope you found it very informative. For those of you who missed it, our next one is Wednesday February 6 at 6:30pm. Come listen in, ask questions, and learn what’s going on at PHS.

We have already started the pre-planning for a golf tournament in May and hosting the “Casino Night on the Hill” in the fall this year. These 2 events will provide a large amount of funds that will go to support teacher wish lists, art, welding, sports and much more. Look for more details online in the next couple of months.

In the past, have you told yourself you would like to help but not sure how? Ask us how? We have many areas that parent volunteers are always welcomed. We have small jobs to being involved with the board. If you are interested in helping out, plan to come to a meeting or email us. We would like to hear from you!
