Mrs. Simpson's Preschool students who are heading off to Kindergarten soon stopped by our school library today. They got to meet Mrs. Harlow and Mrs. Wright, our school librarians. The students got a tour of the library and got to listen to a few stories. They were amazed at how many books the library had available. They can't wait to visit the school library next year in Kindergarten!
Happy Administrative Professionals Day to Mrs. McLeod and Mrs. Foster! PHS is so grateful for all you do!! Thank you!

Look at these lucky winners! 🎉They cashed in their IAR raffle tickets for some extra TECH Time! While most dove into fun with our robots, one creative kiddo chose to design in Tinkercad. No matter their pick, it looks like everyone had a blast exploring the world of technology!
