🎉 That's a Wrap on the 2024–2025 School Year! 🎉
It is hard to believe we closed the books on another incredible year at PES! 📚✏️ From the first day jitters to the last day cheers, our students have grown in so many ways — academically, socially, and emotionally.
We are so proud of all our Panthers for their hard work, kindness, and growth. A huge thank you to our amazing teachers and staff for their dedication, creativity, and love every single day. Thank you to our families for your ongoing support — we couldn't do it without you!
Wishing everyone a safe, relaxing, and fun-filled summer. ☀️ We will see you back in August, ready for another year of learning and laughter! 🧡🖤

Middle School end of year awards for 7th and 8th grade!
Congrats to our 8th graders who will be moving up to the high school in the fall. You will be missed at the middle school but know you are ready to soar at the high school! To the 7th graders who will be 8th graders, enjoy your final year at the middle school and it is your time to be leaders!




Middle School end of year awards for 5th and 6th grade! Proud of all our Panthers for working so hard this year!




Mrs. Brass and her HS Biology classes asked the question, how healthy is the soil on the PHS campus?
Biology students set out to determine this by taking on the "Soil Your Undies" challenge twice this school year! They tested the soil during the fall and again in the spring to see if there was a difference. This semester students "planted" a pair of new white cotton undies in the same spot on campus that they "planted" their undies in the fall and let them rest for 7 weeks.
Microbial activity is a fantastic indicator of healthy soil, and when there are microbes present, they will consume the cotton of the undies leaving nothing but a waist-band behind! The students definitely discovered that there are different levels of microbial activity on our campus, and that season certainly plays a role!
Wonder what the soil health looks like in your yard, garden, or field, we encourage you to take on the Soil Your Undies challenge at home!
