Too cute not to share. This young lady made a heart word book so she can practice with her friends. This morning these girls were practicing their heart words in the gym before class. Way to go girls!



Great way Mrs. Ibarra got to know her story students at the beginning of the year with 4-5 things that they like and I stop by and read 1 or 2 when I'm in that hallway.


Celebrating kindness with the PCHS Volleyball Team.











Outstanding work by 8th grader Lydia in Mr. Curry's Art class. They are working on 1 point perspective from a bird's eye view.


We celebrated kindness today. Every student caught doing an act of kindness, received a heart that went into a drawing. We drew two kindness hearts per grade level today. The high school cheerleaders even did a cheer for each student drawn.



Check out these super smart Mathfact masters! They knew all of our special math facts quickly. Way to go kiddos!
