3D Art students are having fun making glass pieces for the first time today.
Last night, the PCHS JV and Varsity Scholastic Bowl teams hit the road to Elmwood for a three-round match against Morton, Elmwood, and Richwoods High Schools. 🚌
🔥 Highlights?
👉 Varsity crushed it with wins over Morton and Richwoods!
👉 A nail-biter against Elmwood had everyone on the edge of their seats—it all came down to the final question! With the score tied at the 19th question, Elmwood clinched the win. What a match!
🤝 Special shoutout to former PCHS principal Mr. Schmieg, who stopped by to cheer us on. It was so great to see him! In case you were wondering, he's still telling dad jokes!!
Way to go, Dragons, for showing your smarts and teamwork! 🐉💪 Let’s keep that fire burning for the next match! 🔥 Pekin's Varsity team will be heading to Princeton on Saturday for the Tiger Cup, a 12-team tournament. Wish us luck!
