Who knew pennies could be this powerful? 🪙✨
Our sophomore class held a Penny Wars fundraiser with five jugs labeled for different teachers. The teacher with the most change got a pie in the face and Mr. Sanders WON by a landslide! He was such a good sport and made the whole day unforgettable. Thanks to everyone who donated!
If you didn't get to experience it LIVE, here's the replay!

Behind every great school day is a team making sure our students are fueled, cared for, and ready to learn—and these amazing women do just that, every single day. They serve more than meals… they serve smiles, kindness, and consistency our students can count on. 💙
Thank you for everything you do for Panther Nation!! We appreciate you more than words can say!
Happy National School Lunch Hero Day! 🧡

National Lunch Hero Day! Today PJHS is celebrating our cafeteria crew!



Today, Panther innovation took center stage at the State Capitol! Student representatives from Ms. Skinner’s Technology Applications class alongside Technology Integration Specialists, Amanda Skinner and Laura Hubbartt, proudly attended the annual Students for Innovation: Advocacy Day, showcasing a program that’s making a real impact.
Our students highlighted their in-house Chromebook repair program in partnership with Xerox IT: a game-changer that not only slashes repair turnaround time but also equips students with valuable, real-world, post-secondary skills. Leading the charge, Head Technician Parker Moore, alongside fellow Tech App standout Brylan Miller, demonstrated the power of student-driven solutions and the future of hands-on learning.
This is what happens when students step up, take ownership, and lead with purpose. Panther pride is on full display!
