Thanks to everyone who came to the Fall Fine Arts Festival!

Great job by 5th-grade, PCJH, and PCHS students at the Fall Fine Arts Festival!

PC #535: We have been made aware of a large fire near Hennepin that is producing significant smoke in the region. Out of an abundance of caution, all outdoor activities at PCES have been moved indoors, and windows throughout the building have been closed.

We are actively monitoring the situation and will remain in contact with local emergency personnel. Should the fire impact air quality to a greater extent, we are prepared to take any additional necessary steps to ensure student and staff safety.

At this time, all indoor school activities continue as scheduled and remain uninterrupted.

PCPS, PCJH, and PCHS are not impacted at this time.

The 5th & 6th grade girls basketball season is in full swing. Let's Go PC!

Home opener for the Lady Pumas.

A huge shout-out and thank you to our amazing PCPS families! In just one week, our students and families read an incredible 249 books! We’re already halfway to our schoolwide goal of 500 books—which means we are that much closer to earning a visit from Corey the Dribbler!

Congratulations to Austin Grasser on his 3rd place finish at the PCJH Cross Country meet. He ran a great race and was the 1st 6th grader to finish.

Congrats to Anniston Judd on her 1st place finish at the PCJH Cross Country Meet today!

Congratulations to these 8th grade cross country runners as we recognize them on their 8th grade day race. Congrats to Kolhton, Ayden, Luca, & Anniston.

Check out these super smart and lightning-fast Mathfact Masters! WOW—there wasn’t a single math fact they didn’t know. Of course, we celebrated with a big Hallway Yee-Haw!

Had a great time in Mrs. Pyszka's class as they learned about solid, liquid, & gas forms of matter by making root beer floats and they made 1 for me.

Loved it that these 2 Pumas showed their Puma pride without planning it- PUMA PRIDE.

Congratulations to our September Students of the Month. Bryson, Zakari, and Brendan display great character and work hard everyday at PCJH. Thank you to the PC PTO for the gift cards.
