We are excited to announce last week's winners of the "Flying the P" award! This week we are honoring our Dragon Day Assistants/Leaders! These students volunteered their time over summer break to plan Dragon Day 2021 to help plan for the Class of 2025 to transition to high school. Then, during the newly expanded two day Dragon Day they helped lead nearly 100 Dragon Day student volunteers to welcome our newest dragons to PCHS. Please help us in congratulating each of these students for all of their work in making Dragon Days 2021 a huge success!
