PCHS is in the process of planning for summer projects. For one of those projects, we are looking for great pictures that people may have of PCHS throughout the years that represent various academic and extracurricular groups and/or activities. We are creating a collage of pictures that will be part of a large graphic used in one of our main hallways. Since most of us are currently stuck at home, what better way to pass the time than to go through old photos/negatives for, what could be, great contributions to this project. If you have any original photos/negatives (not cell phone/social media pictures) that you feel you would be willing to share, you can send those to Danielle Owens, 320 Stadium Drive, Pekin, IL 61554. Please make sure to include your name and return address as we will send them back to you once we are finished with them. We are hoping to include photos throughout the history of PCHS. Thank you for your help in making this project a reality!

Tomorrow is a remote learning planning day: Students will be required to sign in to the attendance form, but no regular school work will be assigned. Be on the lookout for some fun activities! -As a reminder, students who are failing or who do not engage in their classes and complete their assignments may receive an incomplete for the semester. They will then be expected to make up the work or take credit recovery either in the summer or the fall semester.

The counseling office wants to continue to celebrate the Class of 2020. These pictures were sent to PCHS from feeder schools. A picture was not sent for every student, so if you have a picture of when you were in elementary school- post the picture in the comments below. We are so proud of how much you have learned and grown- we cannot wait to see where you go next. (Special thanks to Mrs. Coon, the counseling office secretary, for putting this together).
