Well Done Warrior: Leah

May 28, 2024
By Mary Barnes

Leah has been at PCS for 14 years and is the last of the 9 children in her family to graduate from Portersville! Wow, what a legacy! In Leah's experience, the value of attending a Christian school is learning how to walk the Christian walk. She is grateful that she has had the opportunity to attend a school that is focused on Christ. “I know that I would not be who I am today if I went to any other school with any other focus,” Leah said. The most valuable lesson that she has learned is that your relationship with God is the most important. A meaningful verse to Leah in this season of life is Galatians 1:10 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ. 

Leah says that she is going to miss the teachers, staff, and people the most from PCS, and that everyone has made such a big impact on her in one way or another. In the fall, Leah plans to attend a gap-year discipleship program through One Life Institute in Lancaster, PA. Leah's final words of wisdom for the younger students are, "For those that love having amazing grades, don't stress so hard about school that you forget to have fun!"

We wish you the best, Leah! Well Done, Warrior!

By Mary Barnes

Caleb is another member of the Class of 2024 who has been at PCS since kindergarten. Caleb fondly remembers hanging out with friends, and playing basketball and soccer with his teammates over the past 12 years, and he will miss all the friends he has made. Caleb was asked what he valued about attending a Christian school. He replied, “I’ve really enjoyed being in a Christian school, being with great people who care about you, and who truly love the Lord! ”. He also said the most valuable thing he has learned at PCS is what he learned in Civics in Dr. Cost's class. A meaningful scripture to Caleb is Isaiah 41:10, Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Caleb's advice for younger students at PCS is, “Continue to put your faith and trust in the Lord and trust in him with all your heart, mind, and soul.” Great advice, Caleb!

In the fall, Caleb will be heading straight into the workforce, but hopes to take online courses somewhere towards a degree. We wish you the best, Caleb! Well dine, Warrior!

Well Done Warrior: Kara

May 12, 2024
By Mary Barnes

Kara is a member of the Class of 2024 who has been at PCS for five years. She has been a member of the volleyball team and has also served as an officer for her class for the past two years. She is currently the class president. Kara said that her favorite memories from her time as a Warrior are: being a part of the volleyball team, the everyday joking around with her classmates, when she and her classmates played hide and seek in 10th grade for missions week, and the senior wilderness trip. Kara said that the thing she will miss the most about PCS is the community that exists within the school, and that what she values about attending a Christian school is “That scripture is integrated into everything that we are learning and the ability to share our faith openly”. Learning how to defend her faith is the most important thing that Kara believes she has learned in her Christian education. A meaningful scripture verse to Kara is 1 Timothy 4:12 Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. 

In the fall, Kara is tentatively headed to Geneva College to study Business Management. We wish Kara the best as she says goodbye to PCS. Well done, Warrior!

By Mary Barnes

Macy has been a member of the PCS Class of 2024 for 11 years. As she reflects on her time at PCS coming to a close, Macy said that she will miss laughing with her friends every day. Her favorite memories are of the senior wilderness trip, specifically the “spider cave”. She values the fact that at a Christian school she has been able to make good friends who are like minded. The most valuable thing she learned was to show Christ's love to everyone.  A meaningful verse to Macy is Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Well Done Warrior: Matthew

April 30, 2024
By Mary Barnes

Matthew is another PCS Warrior who is getting ready to fly! He has been at PCS for six years and has been involved in athletics--soccer, basketball, and men's volleyball--as well as student leadership, serving as a class officer and in student government. Matthew is also an Eagle Scout and a member of the Lawrence County Sportsman Association.

There are many memories students make at PCS. When asked about his favorite memories, Matthew mentioned he is grateful that he met and was mentored by Cole Wilson, a former student. Matthew also mentioned that he is thankful that he was a part of getting the men's volleyball team started. When we asked Matthew what he will miss about PCS, he said he will miss the teachers and a few students in particular. Matthew had some words of wisdom for younger students. He said, “Have fun when you're younger, because when you are a senior, all you want to do is sleep.”

We like to hear what students value from their time at PCS. Matthew mentioned that he values the great environment at PCS.  Also, something valuable he learned at PCS is that “being right isn't the most important thing.” A scripture verse that is meaningful to Matthew right now is Revelation 3:19-21 Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.

In the fall Matthew is headed to Norwich University to study Computer and Electrical Engineering. Matthew, you will be missed! Well done, Warrior!
