Around Campus
Our Superintendent, Dr. Oviedo, was at PHS on Wednesday, walking the campus and classrooms, talking with students and staff. It was great to see our Titans actively engaged in their classes. Wednesday evening, our guidance counselors and the Horizons team hosted a senior success meeting- if you missed it, the presentation can be found here (English/ Spanish). If you have questions about the application process and/or financial aid, please talk with your counselor or stop by the Horizons office.
It was so nice seeing so many Future Titans this week: On Thursday, through the Junior Cheer Clinic, we saw Future Titans cheer on the varsity football team to victory, putting on a great halftime show! On Friday, our Titan Marching Band walked to Nelson Elementary to support their kick-off assembly, playing pep tunes and bringing the Titan PRIDE to our neighbors.
