Mrs. Tanner's seniors work on a slide presentation as they finish their "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" unit. Lots of "spooky" projects currently going on in PHS classes!
October Student of the Month: Tripp Price! If you feel a moment of deja vu, don't worry: Tripp was honored as Student of the Month last year, too. He's pretty great!

Apache Showcase Nov 4th 5-8
A UACCM recruiter visited with students this past week, and they learned about the different programs available just twenty minutes down the road. Several PHS students are enrolled on both campuses--a great option for those who want the benefits of concurrent classes!
Mrs. Storm and Mrs. Kendrick welcomed guest speakers from ANO into their classrooms to discuss STEM careers, specifically those available at the nuclear reactor, where average salaries span from $60,000 to $130,000. Students had the opportunity to ask questions and learn about the science behind this clean energy source.
This group of biology students took a quiz over microscopes and then moved to the lab to practice using their knowledge with real ones. Second-period Biology is FULL of big tenth-grade (and teacher) personalities!
Mrs. Brooka Potts stepped in to cover the concession stand during a recent volleyball game, and she earned her first "caught being good" button. We catch Mrs. Potts being good every day!
After Prom planning and fundraising start WAY before April! These mamas spent many hours this week creating Boo Grams (in between organizing for Sadie Hawkins and watching a few volleyball games, too). PHS has the best parents!
In a fun twist to PHS's "caught being good" program, Mrs. Stephanie Mathis honored Jose Parra with his first button of the year.! #ourtribestory
The Sadie Hawkins Dance isn't ready for Caden and his pizza tie! Shout out to Mrs. Loveless for helping Caden pull his outfit together!
Mrs. Riley's classes practiced recording transactions and posting them to T-accounts; this chalk assignment helped students better visualize how transactions impact the accounting equation. A great way to enjoy the sunshine and use some kinesthetic learning!
PHS students participated in the FBLA Fall Convention on Friday; they enjoyed a great speaker and inducted new members and officers. Thanks for representing us so well!

Aidan, Baylee, & Abby returned from fall break to the sonic drink of their choice after winning the trial of Pluto vs the IAU in Mrs. Kendrick's class. Their airtight defense for the IAU’s choice to demote Pluto earned them this reward!
Congratulations to our newest "Caught Being Good" student: Alex Davis! He helped a classmate clean up a spilled drink without being asked. #OurTribeStory
