Parent Communications
Palms Middle School and Friends of Palms believe that communication among school staff, parents, and students is the key to success.
The most important action you should take is to sign up for the Friends of Palms weekly email. Without it you may not know what's going on at school.

- information brought home by your child. Make sure he or she gives you any notices or forms brought home in their backpack.
- school events for parents, including Back-to-School Night, Coffee with the Principal, and Open House
