Principal's Message

Welcome to the Parsippany High School website!

Dear REDHAWK Students and Families:

Welcome Back to PHS for the 2023 - 2024 School Year! It is an honor and privilege to serve as the Principal of Parsippany High School. It is wonderful to start the year off returning to a sense of normalcy and offering all the traditional and wide-ranging opportunities of an exceptional high school. PHS is a wonderful place to learn and work; our staff and students are dedicated to making PHS the best it can be through engaging learning opportunities, extracurricular and athletic experiences, and continued support for one another.

Our experienced staff is dedicated to providing learning experiences that engage and challenge our students. In addition to our academic offerings, we pride ourselves on the extracurricular and athletic opportunities we offer to develop well rounded individuals that are ready to be the future leaders of the world as they graduate from PHS. We continue to encourage all of our students to get involved and find and follow their passions. Whether it be an athletic team, one of our 50+ clubs and activities or academic competitive teams, our students are supported and challenged to make the best of their high school years. One of the most rewarding experiences I encounter daily is working collaboratively with our students and families to support the development of our students into citizens that will excel beyond our school and benefit our world as the leaders of tomorrow.

To stay informed of all of the opportunities, programs, and services at PHS, I suggest you monitor your emails, review our Weekly Newsletter, and follow our school social media accounts (Instagram: @humansofparhigh and Twitter: @PHS_GoodDay). Our PHS Student Handbook provides important information necessary for a successful school year. Please review the handbook and all the guidelines that we have in place to create the safest and most successful learning environment possible. Please educate yourself on the expectations and rules, as well as the attendance requirements.

The Administration and staff at PHS welcome the opportunity to partner with our students and families in making PHS the best it can be! We will continue to explore ways to challenge our students academically, offer them opportunities to serve their community, and provide a platform for them to share their opinions and hone their leadership skills. We will continue to urge our students to find a way to get involved and explore new opportunities!
We look forward to a successful, fun, and rewarding year!

With REDHAWK Pride,

Mrs. Melissa Carucci, Principal
