A Blackhawk helicopter will be landing on campus this Thursday, April 30th at 9 AM— and yes, it’s as cool as it sounds.
Our JROTC students (with PCHS staff chaperones) have the exciting opportunity to take to the skies. If you hear the roar overhead, don’t worry — it’s not a movie scene, just another unforgettable day at PCHS.
Keep your eyes up and your phones ready… this is one landing you won’t want to miss! 👀
