The Counselor's Hallway received a major facelift this summer! Take a walk down PCHS history as murals created by Deverman Advertising and produced/installed by PIP Printing reflect years of history. This Touch-Pro system not only allowed us to upload all of our Departmental Award Winners from the past 20 years, our state champions in sports, and our Distinguished Alumni as well as Master Dragon staff members, it has also given us the ability to upload digital copies of almost all of our yearbooks since 1908!!! And, the greatest part about this "fancy TV" is that the platform of all of this information is also available to everyone, not just those who stand in front of the device. The link to all of this historical information can be found on the PCHS webpage at pekinhigh.net under the Menu Tab of Dragon History. Here is a direct link as well: http://pekinhigh.touchpros.com/Home2.aspx
Thank you to all who contributed pictures and who will walk down memory lane with us!
