We are excited to announce this week's winners of the "Flying the P" award! This week we will be honoring seven students who recently represented PCHS on a student panel for WEEK 25 news. As part of the panel, they provided insight from a high school student's perspective on how to choose what career or college to pursue after high school and why. The students provided honest answers to sometimes difficult questions about the opportunities available to students, societal stereotypes of careers, and ultimately their own personal reasons for their after high school plan. Their segment will air on WEEK on the 5:00 and 10:00 news on Thursday, January 30th. Please help me us congratulating these students for representing PCHS and a job well done!
