March 10, 2007 - WOW!! We received a shipment of fourteen (14) Yearbooks from
Judy Kaplan, Library Media Specialist at PHS.

June 23, 2006 - Another thank you to Steve Rubenfeld who loaned us his
Class of 1966 Yearbook and
Christina (Campbell) Brett who loaned us her 1985 Yearbook.
Now if we could just hear from someone in the other Classes of 1980’s
Of course the era of the 1990’s remains a mystery,
maybe they stopped printing Yearbooks!
June 4 - 2006- Thanks to Wendy Percoulis, class of 1987, we now have added the
Yearbook pictures for that class.
June 1 - 2006 - We appreciate the many suggestions and various emails about obituaries,
reunions, etc. that we have been receiving. We want to continue to hear from you often.
We attempt to make all updates to Class data within a few days, and answer all emails that need a reply.
However, it may happen that something gets missed or done incorrectly.
In which case please send us a reminder as we want to keep all the data current and answer all
emails promptly. The Webmasters want these pages to be regarded as belonging to all alumnis.
May 29 - 2006 - We (Lynn) have incorporated a new feature to the site. Click on the Picture Galleries
to the left and then jump to “2000 All Classes Reunion”
You will then be introduced to our new “slide show” feature.
(More pictures have and will be added to this reunion).
Unfortunately we don’t have the names. Do you?
If you have pictures of your reunions that you would like to have posted, get in touch with the webmasters. For new entries we will need the names and classes of those pictured. We are thinking of adding
slide shows to the individual class directories, showing pictures of you and your family today,
along with short bios. Your feedback on this feature will be appreciated.
January 29, 2006: Added: A forums page which links to dedicated PHS forums that we’re
maintaining on the server (and links back to the regular pages here.
Also filled in the Fallen Heroes section and made some minor tweaks to the site style
(including a “last updated” notation on each page...which may or may not work.)
