PJHS Choir Concert

Submitted by chris.killpack on

Remember the choir concert scheduled for this Thursday at 7:00 pm at PHS. 

Also, the Men's Choir has had fun learning a variety of different pieces of music this semester. To end it all, we created a music video of "I'll Make a Man Out of You." We hope you enjoy our parody of the song because we had so much fun making this video!!!!

See the video on the PJHS YouTube channel using this link

Spanish Class News and Announcement

Submitted by chris.killpack on

Many of our students turn 15 in Junior High. The quinceañera celebration is a tradition among many Spanish speaking countries.  This tradition has been carried on for many years in many communities. In our Spanish classes we have been learning about the tradition and the meaning of it.  Last week we had our mini-celebrations of the quinceanera.  Students were able to try on an authentic quinceanera dress. Students have been learning the history of merengue and salsa dances as well.
