Alumni eUpdate News
September
2012
How can it be FALL already? San Diego is still having August humidity in September.
The new school year has begun, and
for those of us with fond memories of PLHS it
is a fun time to reflect on those first weeks of high school. Fall is also a busy time for Alumni to reunite with classmates
at reunion events, and Homecoming! News below.
The PLHS Directory Update project
is now complete and print directories have been mailed to those who ordered
them. Thank you to everyone who called in to update contact info for our
records and so your reunion chair’s to find you! If you missed the postcards
or calls, please go to www.plhsalumni.org/register.html and
check to be sure you info is current. If the system has any trouble finding
your name please use the help button and we will get it figured out.
There are many decisions to be made regarding the Alumni
Committee each year and we need your help to
make sure we are giving our Alums the best connection to PLHS possible. The
Alumni Committee will meet once a quarter in a relaxed and fun atmosphere (no
board meetings!) to talk about eUpdate content, website improvements, events,
memorabilia collection, scholarship funding, and anything else committee members
want to discuss.

SHARE YOUR EXPERTISE and help a Pointer look to the future:
The Introduction to Career Class for
freshman students needs professionals willing to come and speak to the class
about their career. All careers are interesting to the students. It really
helps to hear from people that are working in the field. It brings the career
to life. Alumni who have come back to speak the students find it very rewarding
and entertaining. If you are interested please contact Ms. Allen at lallen@sandi.net for more information.
ALUMNI WEBSITE: Based on your requests, we will be working on some new additions
to the Alumni website:
* In Memoriam page listing all known deceased Pointers,
*Sports Records page
* PLHS News links page (with links to any media pieces about PL.)
Check plhsalumni.org often
and watch for the new additions.
