Every Friday at PCJH, students and staff welcome students as they arrive in the morning. This morning it was Mrs. Ibarra and her VIP with music, dancing, signs, and candy! Great way to start a Friday!

COVID Testing Information: If a student is absent from school due to covid symptoms the student MUST have a test to return, or remain out at least 5 days. This test can be a home test, hospital test, or a test done within our district. If a home test is done results MUST be communicated with a school nurse by video/photo documentation of the swabbing process and results. When talking to the school nurse they will communicate how to provide home test results. If you have any questions regarding Covid symptoms, testing procedures, or any other health related issues please contact Mrs. Main for the primary/ high school or Mrs. Munson for elementary/ junior high school. Thank you for your cooperation with this process, Mrs. Munson & Mrs. Main

Students in Mr. Harris' STEM class building boats to see how much weight they can hold. Teamwork, analysis of current structures, and critical thinking are keys to improving their model each time.
