Congratulations to the PCJH Athlete of the Week, Carder Weeks!

The 5th and 6th graders always look up to him! They even ask to be in his group for workouts and warmups. One 5th grader even stated "I want to be like Carder!" He comes to practice everyday with a positive attitude and keeps his classmates accountable." Carder is also involved in band, baseball, and basketball.

Congratulations to the PCJH Athlete of the Week, Ryan Evans!
Ryan, a 7th grader, was nominated by Mr. Grant, who wrote, "In his first year of Scholastic Bowl, Ryan has proven to be a strong leader and a great teammate. As a 7th grader, Ryan has been eager and willing to act as captain of the team. While he is sometimes unable to do this during matches, he has acted as one during practices and has helped during matches with strategy for the team’s acting captain. Ryan has been extremely supportive of his teammates and has encouraged the team during matches. He has also provided a lot of fun laughs and enjoyment during practices that his coach and teammates greatly appreciate.
Finally, Ryan is a great example of the strong link between his participation in extracurriculars to academic achievement. Mr. Grant has Ryan in his social studies class and has witnessed those qualities and his strong work ethic, leadership, and strong social skills. Ryan has also taken on a leadership role in the Student Council and is a participant in Jazz Band. His contributions have helped make PCJH a better place." Ryan is also involved in Jazz Band and Student Council.
Congratulations to the PCJH Student of the Week, Penelope Issleb!
Penelope, a 7th grader, was nominated by Ms. Weighley, who wrote, "Penelope consistently goes above and beyond to advocate for herself in math class. She is diligent about her understanding of our math lessons, comes to see me during her study hall when she needs help or to make up lessons when absent, and has been observed helping other students' understanding when working in groups or with a partner. Penelope participates in our class discussions and group activities and can be counted on to always be on-task in class. Penelope has a pleasant personality and has been a delight to have in class this year. I look forward to following her successes! Penelope wants to be a teacher! Possibly of younger students around the 3rd or 4th grade level." Penelope is involved in choir and art guild.
