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.
