At PCHS, the staff is collaborating to grow our capacity to facilitate classroom environments that prioritize positive student-teacher and student-student relationships and community building. One of our strategies for this is the use of restorative circles. Today, Spanish 1 students are engaging in a modified version of the “21 Shoulders” circle activity to practice counting up and down in Spanish!

AP Statistics students went on an adventurous Problem Trail around the school. Each correct problem solved led them to a new location and problem to tackle. Teams raced to discover the correct solutions and problem sequence to win the prize! A great way to get in some Fitbit points and to review!
