Each year, PECPS hosts a convocation event to welcome back all our staff! This event sets the tone for the school year. This year's theme was "Be inspired, be focused, you are the difference!" πβ¨ The keynote speaker, Barbara Patterson Oden, encouraged everyone to realize the difference they make in our students' lives and to always find joy in our shared purpose. π€







The high school is ready for another year to start! Teachers and staff had a friendly "cheer off" competition! Let's go Eagles!



Each year, the leadership team of PECPS gathers off-campus to discuss the upcoming school year. ππ
