This year we want to celebrate great student attendance! From student interest surveys last year, PCHS students reported they would like two things for incentives: free time and a large prize at the end of the year...
We listened! Read below about the 23-24 attendance incentive starting now!
Each month, students who attend school 95% of the time (one absence or less) receive a ticket for an opportunity to own… a Chevy Cavalier!!
Students who earn a ticket will attend a monthly advisory celebration to turn in their tickets. If you meet this goal in October, you will be invited to the first ticket drop-off in November!
One ticket will be chosen at the end of the school year, and the Cavalier will be donated to that person!
