PJHS Students Help Orphans In Mexico

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Teachers and Staff performed at PJHS live for 7th graders. Our 7th grade students won the privilege of seeing our staff show off their talents and abilities as a reward for donating the most money as a class to our annual fund drive for orphaned children in Mexico. Because of the generous donations given by ALL of our students, we are able to help these children with basic needs such as clothing, bed sheets, personal hygiene and other necessities.

A big thanks to ALL of our students for generously donating to help others in need this holiday season.

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

We don't need judges! We already know our students have talent and we saw that today during our annual Talent Show. Students sang, played instruments, tackled the Rubik's cube, sketched, danced, and performed skits and above all, had a great time! Thanks to all of those who worked to put it all together and to those who shared their talents with us.

Straw Towers

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Students who achieve all passing grades, less than 3 tardies and 90% attendance in a term qualify for a special in-school activity in our "Grizzly Club Lounge". This month's activity, sponsored by our monumentally amazing math department, involved teams of 5 students. The students were given straws and tape and were to build a tower. As they made their towers, teachers encouraged each group to think about what shapes would give a good base. The team with the highest tower that could stand on its own won. The top three teams earned a prize.

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

PJHS' annual Red Ribbon Week was held recently to mobilize the school and community to educate youth and encourage participation in drug prevention activities. Students participated in a banner contest to stamp out drugs, collectively walked 500 miles - each student walked 1/2 mile around campus, ran or cheered on runners in a 2 mile fun run, created a flash mob, and listened to speakers from BYU's football team including Tanner Mangum-QB, Nate Carter-RB, and Kurt Henderson-WR.

PJHS Parents,

We have experienced quite the excitement at school this week after the Today Show aired a story about our bicycle program. Our program was part of a study conducted by Specialized Bicycle Company researching links between physical activity and academic achievement. We have continued to use the bicycles in PE classes to help students be able to focus during classes as well as gain healthy lifestyle habits.
