To help her students relax and destress with the return to hybrid learning, Mrs. Kuhn's biology students participated in cross-curricular activities where students had to focus on the beauty and details in objects around them. Students connected with their inner artist while at the same time connecting science and art. Great job! |

April is National Poetry Month and the PVHS Library is celebrating with a month-long poetry bracket and other activities. Participating students and staff read or listen to poems daily and select which in that moment holds the most resonance for them. Each round a poet and their work advance forward in the bracket. Competition is a little antithetical to the idea of poetry, an art form meant to communicate thought and emotion. Rather than pitting poems against each other, we're employing the bracket for exposure and celebration. It's never too late to jump in! We're currently in ROUND 8 - please be sure to read all of our amazing STUDENT SUBMISSIONS! (And it's never too late to start reading & even voting from Round 1).

It was Rivalry Week for our Sea Kings this past week as we got ready for our last football game of the year against Peninsula. With excitement in the air, we were able to cheer our Sea Kings to a victory with students in the stands, marching band, cheer, and song. Congrats on a fantastic season to all of our football team and coaches! |
