Intro to Culinary Arts taste tested parfaits to prepare for our deliveries. Today we made dirt pudding parfaits. Yum 😋

The Close Up trip to Washington D.C. has been taken by PCHS students since the 1970s. The 12 wonderful individuals who went this week are wonderful ambassadors for everyone at home. Pride for their town and school was exemplified in everything they did and everyone they encountered throughout the week. Be encouraged by their leadership and dedication. #DragonPride




We hope all of our Dragons have a safe and restful Spring Break! Classes resume on April 22nd.

The 36th Legislative Session was a success. The House even overrode a veto by the Chief Executive. The students were active participants in drafting, amending, and passing legislation. Always an amazing day!








Mr. Denham, on the Close Up trip, got to catch up with a former student and 2017 PCHS alum Preston Hanley, who works for a firm that conducts business with the DOD at the Pentagon. Preston showed him around the largest office building in the world. #DragonPride

If you missed Alina and Lauren - you can watch it here!
