Stacia’s artistic talent 🎨, enthusiastic support on the sidelines 📣, and strong work ethic in the classroom make her a wonderful representative of our Apache tribe. 💛🖤
Congratulations, Stacia—we are so proud of you! 👏 #OurTribeStory

This prestigious honor means they’ll spend several days learning the process of government—campaigning, running for office, and experiencing leadership in action. 🗳️👏
These students are outstanding representatives of the Apache tribe, and we can’t wait to see what they accomplish. Good luck this summer! 💛🖤 #OurTribeStory

Kade Braeutigam is the PHS Valedictorian for the Class of 2026, and Jackson Wilson is the Salutatorian! 🌟📚 These young men have worked incredibly hard—taking rigorous AP classes, studying for countless tests, and learning more than the human brain should probably be capable of!
We are so proud of their achievements and can’t wait to celebrate them at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 14, at Tucker Coliseum. 💛🖤
Great work, Kade and Jackson! 👏 #OurTribeStory
