Dedicated. Team-Player. Talented. Caring. Positive. Inspiring. #TheDragonWay
PCHS teachers spent the morning collaborating and modeling The Dragon Way!

September is attendance awareness month!
As we "Show Up Together", parents you can help make school attendance a priority by:
Talking about the importance of showing up to school every day.
Help your teen maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night's sleep.
If your teen must stay at home due to illness, make sure that your student has asked his/her teachers for resources and materials to make up for missed time in the classroom.

It's Blackout game day! A reminder that a Blackout shirt gets you free admission to tonight's game. We still have a few short sleeves in youth, 3x & 4x in our Dragon Store. Some long sleeves left in all sizes except for large. Perfect for our cooler temps!

How many lemons does it take to make a lemon shake up at the Marigold festival?...A LOT. Ask the culinary Arts students. We juiced 15 cases for the Rotary Club.



Join us tomorrow for the 75th Anniversary of the Memorial Stadium!
Watch some football, wear your Blackout shirt, honor our Distinguished Alumni, and stay for fireworks after the game in collaboration with the Marigold Festival!
As a reminder, Stadium Drive will be closed. Parking will be available in the yellow marked-off areas (Arena, 4H, & Early-bird Lot)
LET'S GO DRAGONS!

We are excited to announce this edition of the Flying the P award. Mylee Hansen has been a tremendous student athlete at PCHS. She has represented the Dragons for multiple years on the basketball court, soccer field, and football field. She has had tremendous success in multiple sports. In particular, she has made over 100 extra points as a kicker on the gridiron. Recently, she committed to become the first female player in Monmouth College football history and will also be a two-sport college athlete by playing on the Monmouth College soccer team! Currently, there are no female players on an NCAA roster at the three division levels. 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 Mylee on winning this edition of the Flying the P award.
