Good things happening in EAST, including Mr. David Fitch's expertise in creating filament in a bottle as part of a project. Mrs. Flemmons keeps her students organized and productive (with a little fun thrown in)!

PHS students participated in a mock election with Mrs. Whorton, and senior Miller Mahan cast a real vote with his choice for president (and has a sticker to prove it)! Students, look for an opportunity to register to vote in the coming months!

This group of friends continues to squeeze every moment of fun out of their senior year. A Boo Basket exchange at lunch is another great memory!

Congratulations to Alyssa Nuckols!
She was the winner of the $250 Scholarship from Arkansas Tech University at the "Battle of the Big River" football game!
