Last Tuesday, we hosted our Rising 7th Grade Night at the junior high! Our future 7th graders had the opportunity to learn about class choices, meet teachers, coaches, band directors, and other staff, and tour the junior high campus.
This week, our rising 9th and 10th graders are touring CTE pathways and learning more about their course options for next year.
Over the next month, our counselors will be visiting career classes to help advise students as they plan ahead.
Your student should be coming home over the next few weeks (if they haven’t already) with a course selection sheet. Please take time to review these options and plan next year’s courses together. Course requests will be entered in late January-early February.
As always, thank you for partnering with us as we help students plan for their future!

🎄🌟 Holiday Spirit is in FULL swing at PRJH today! 🌟🎄 Our building was buzzing with festive cheer! Our English team dressed up as characters from Home Alone, Cindy Lou Who (aka Mrs. Feemster) was roaming the halls, and April Smith surprised us with homemade treats! A HUGE thank-you to the Billings, Greer, and Hurst families, who partnered with Sugar Llamas (the Konkler Family) to spoil our staff with a happy wagon filled with delicious donut-holes and specialty sodas. What a treat!! 🍩🥤 If you haven't checked out Sugar Llamas in Rogers yet, you'll want to stop by ASAP. They're amazing!! We're so grateful for our community and the joy they bring to our campus! ❤️🎅🏼
