The FORCE students continue to make steady progress in their life skills, employment skills, and on the job training with Mr. Jamie. As part of their training, they are preparing sandwiches for our sports teams, providing athletes with the nutrition they need to refuel after their intense workouts. Through this experience, students are developing valuable, transferable skills that will support their future success in the workforce.

Our high school students had the best time visiting the elementary schools for Read Across America Day! They shared their love for reading by reading stories to younger students, sparking imaginations and encouraging a lifelong love of books. It’s always a joy to see the older students mentoring and inspiring the next generation. Thank you to everyone who made this day so special!




Congratulations to PHS Teacher of the Month, Grady Scott, and Staff Member of the Month, Rhonda Gibson! 🎉 Your hard work and dedication to our students and school do not go unnoticed. Thank you for all that you do!
