You never know what will be offered at PCHS, or what you could be involved in,
but we all know that the opportunity is here, and the fire is within!
Passion from students added new clubs to our school,
And when it comes down to it—An idea, like a flame, is stoked by energy,
And energy is what won the Flyin’ the P.
Let’s give it up to our WELDING CLUB, who always keep it together,
led by Mr. Seth Thomas and Mr. Dave Huskisson.
