Tomorrow is a Remote Learning Day for all students. All students must log in by 11 AM. Classwork/assignments will be posted by 8:00am for all students who would have been “at school”. “At home” students will go on with their day as normal as they will already have their assignments. Stay warm and safe!

The S'Pekin Dragons competed at the virtual IHSA Sectional tournament and placed 4th in overall Team Sweeps. More importantly, we had THREE students qualify for the IHSA State Tournament: Elisabeth Sandoval, Taylor Cady, and Madison Hieser! Students had to place 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in their event to qualify for the State Tournament. We had several close calls (4th place), but ultimately, PCHS had a really good day and much to be proud of. Here are the results: Dramatic Duet Acting 4th place - Taylor Cady (senior) & Caroline Manning (junior) Extemporaneous Speaking 4th place - Mark Czesak (soph) Informative Speaking 6th place - Norah Springborn Oratorical Declamation STATE QUALIFIER!!! - 3rd place - Madison Hieser (junior) Original Comedy 4th place - Christian Redding (soph) Original Oratory STATE QUALIFIER & SECTIONAL CHAMPION!!! - Elisabeth Sandoval (senior) Poetry Reading STATE QUALIFIER!!! - 2nd place - Taylor Cady Prose Reading STATE QUALIFIER & SECTIONAL CHAMPION!!! - Elisabeth Sandoval (senior) Special Occasion Speaking 6th place - Norah Springborn (soph) The IHSA State Tournament will take place virtually this coming Friday evening and Saturday morning/afternoon. If you happen to see these students congratulate them on a job well done and wish our three state-bound dragons the best of luck as they prepare this week to compete against the best of the best in the state of Illinois!

With the potential of inclement weather, we wanted to remind everyone of our E-Learning Plan protocols as we no longer have traditional "snow days". If we are in a position to have to call school off for cold/snow, it will be shared with parents using our “blast” system and social media, as well as tv station alerts. All students (both students who would have been at school and those who would be at home) need to sign-into their Google attendance sheet for each class by 11:00am. Classwork/assignments will be posted by 8:00am for all students who would have been “at school”. “At home” students will go on with their day as normal as they will already have their assignments. Please know "if" we do have to call off school due to inclement weather we will communicate that information to everyone as early as possible.
