CC@PCS! Tuesday Edition, V.1, E.4 – 9/6/22

September 6, 2022

Greetings students and families!

Here’s what’s going on this week…

Service. God calls us to love our neighbors, serve one another, and serve him. You also need to demonstrate SERVICE as you apply to colleges and for various scholarships. THIS WEEK YOU CAN SERVE BY: helping with the Emergency Water Drive for Jackson. Bring cased bottled water, gallon jugs, Clorox wipes, or hand sanitizer to the LIBRARY for our neighbors without running water. You can also log BETA hours by donating or volunteering. If you are interested in helping to transport supplies to Jackson on Saturday, let me know (ethomas@pcsk12.org)!

JUNIORS! READ THIS: Please come to the Counseling Office TODAY or TOMORROW if you are interested in applying for the Cooperative Youth Leadership Award. You can win a spot to participate in the Cooperative Youth Leaders’ Youth Tour of Washington D.C.!
