Announcing the 2026 PCHS Homecoming Court
The PCHS Counseling Office will be hosting FAFSA completion nights on October 8th and February 17th at 6pm in the Dragon Commons. All students, regardless of attending a 4-yr, 2-yr, or vocational/trade school will need to complete the FAFSA or the 2027 Opt Out Portal. Both parents and students will need to create an FSA ID prior to the event. Please do so by going to https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch. These workshops will be a great opportunity to work on your student's FAFSA while having experts around to answer any questions that may come up. We hope to see you there!
