Happy Friday, Dragons- I hope your weekend is filled with growth, fun, and lots of glee,
But before we get that let’s honor one of our own with the weekly Flying the P.
Well this week, our winner has us feeling very cheerful and merry…
Her involvement in the school and community is extraordinary.
Her time seems to be in serious demand,
As she participates in Speech, STUCO, NHS, and even Band.
As a student who gives back so much to PCHS,
There is something she’s done outside of school that we feel that we must address…
Soaring high in the sky, the majestic eagle rules the day,
A bird of symbolism, A bird of prey…
On the same level as the bird, is the Eagle Scout,
And that is what this week’s Flying the P is all about!
The first female Eagle Scout in Troop 265,
She’s completed 21 different merit badges and continues to thrive.
Communications, first aid, and personal management,
She’s completed all of her tasks– what an accomplishment..
Her Troop built some benches, and she suggested more–
With her leadership, the troop built 64!
Wildlife Prairie Park is thankful for her desire,
And we are proud of her continued Dragon Fire!
So let’s give a Dragon Roar for Liz Hayden— The First Female Eagle Scout 🦅 in Troop 265 and a committed and involved Dragon!
You have represented PCHS with pride! You inspire others every day and are a great example of The Dragon Way!
Plus join us in congratulating her!
Liz Hayden

In the halls of PCHS, a force stands tall,
When the Dragons need help, he answers the call.
Band, Firepit, Golf, Baseball, his Dragon Fire is ablaze,
Now he is setting up the gym lighting, earning our praise.
Hawkins gym transformed, a spectacle to behold,
His digital touch, turning it into pure gold.
For every home game, both girls and boys,
He commands the lighting with unwavering poise.
In the assembly's spotlight, he took his stand,
Guiding the system with a steady hand.
A maestro of light, orchestrating the show,
An artful dance, with a radiant glow.
Sporting events galore, he lends his hand,
A virtual cheerleader, for our teams to withstand.
From the field to the court, his passion unfurls,
Capturing moments, creating social media swirls.
Logan Booth, a force, a dynamic source,
For participation, he charts the course.
In the heart of PCHS, his influence grows,
A leader, a doer, his dedication shows.
So here's to Logan, with gratitude and cheer,
For making our school atmosphere very clear.
In the tapestry of PCHS, his impact is easy to see
So let’s honor him this week with the Flying the P!
Thank you for your impact Logan!
You have represented PCHS with pride! You inspire others every day and are a great example of The Dragon Way! Please join us in congratulating our very own PCHS Spirit Specialist on winning this edition of the Flying the P award.
