A couple PCJH homerooms decided to fundraise for Toys for Tots in creative ways. It started with Mrs. Davis’ class challenging the whole school to raise funds for toys. It continued with Mrs. Wenger’s homeroom offering their gift wrapping services to fundraise for toys. It culminated with Mrs. Hamlin’s class singing carols for tips (or being paid to go away 🤣).




Congratulations to PCHS Athletes of the Month, Drew Haberkorn and Chloe Sisco!

PCJH Newsletter

PC Elementary held an assembly this morning for Veteran's Day. "This month, our Nation honors the strength and sacrifices of the families, caregivers, and survivors of our veterans and our current service members. They may not wear uniforms, but their service is essential to our national security and the character of our Nation. We owe them a debt of gratitude that we can never fully repay."
