Our fall sports athletes had their first after school study hall today. Under the new S.T.O.K.E.D. program student athletes will have an hour twice a week to get their homework done with help from PHS teachers in each core subject area: English, Science, Social Studies, Math and Foreign Language.
Winter and spring sport athletes will follow suit during their seasons.
We want to thank Hiott Printing for producing the agendas that each athlete received today.

We want to congratulate our JROTC Leadership Team for earning a spot in the top 40, out of 1700 plus JROTC programs, to attend the JROTC Leadership and Academic Bowl in Washington, D.C. last week. The attendees were Clayton Payne, June Simms, Stacey Parris and Cory Imundo. Although they did not win the overall competition, each student was awarded the George C. Marshall leadership medal, The MacArthur leadership medal, and a signed letter from retired General Colin Powell.
