LHS Juniors get a "Reality Check."
On Friday, students in Mrs. Jenkins' Computer Science Foundations class were given the opportunity to practice programming robots. Specifically, they were able to program Sphero robots to follow a path while changing pictures and sounds. Through this exercise, students honed their problem-solving, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills.
Scheduled camps at PCPS this summer.

Today, April 4, 2023, is School Librarian Day. Please be sure to thank your librarians for all they do for your school.
School Library Month is the American Association of School Librarians' celebration of school librarians/libraries.
Research shows that school libraries/librarians have the ability to have a positive effect on the success of students. Libraries are intended to be comfortable learning spaces where students are given the ability to have free conversations, receive one-on-one attention if needed, and explore topics in a calming atmosphere.
