This “Well Done Warrior” spotlight is on Selah, who has been at PCS for 12 years. She has been very involved with volleyball, both at PCS and outside school. She is also on the Yearbook committee, and is a member of Student Council and National Honor Society. 

Selah said she has many good memories at PCS, but some of her favorites are from this year's Senior Wilderness Trip. She said that after she graduates, she will really miss seeing her friends every day and the tightly-knit community at PCS. She advises current underclassmen at PCS to enjoy their years at PCS because they go by quickly!

Something Selah values about her education at PCS is knowing that her teachers are invested in her as a person, not just as a student. She also said that the most valuable thing she has learned at PCS is the teaching about how to interpret the world we live in through a biblical worldview. A meaningful scripture passage to Selah is Micah 6:8, He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? 

In the fall, Selah will be attending Houghton University to study Pre-Physical Therapy and also to play volleyball. May God bless your endeavors, Selah!

Tim is one of our seniors graduating in 2024. He has been attending PCS for 12 years, and indicated that his favorite memories are those with his friends, which is what he said he will miss the most about PCS. Tim has been involved in soccer and basketball at PCS. He was a captain on both teams and was also named the MVP of the boys' basketball team. Tim also said that the thing he values the most about PCS is the community here. When Tim was asked what the most valuable thing he learned at PCS, he replied, “Most things from Dr. Cost”. A meaningful scripture verse to Tim is Psalm 118:24, This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

In the fall, Tim will be attending Slippery Rock University, and he plans to major in Sports Management. We wish you the best in all of your endeavors, Tim!

Naomi has been at PCS for 14 years--since pre-school! She is involved with many activities, including volleyball, girls basketball manager, musical stage director, National Honor Society, Senior Class Treasurer, and Yearbook Editor. Being at PCS so long has given Naomi many memories. Some of her favorite ones include staying at school late into the night for sports or musical-related activities and laughing about jokes in classes with some of her favorite teachers. She also remembers playing hide and seek in tenth grade with her class during school, but then getting in trouble. Some of the things Naomi will miss when she moves on from PCS are all of her friends in the younger grades. She said, “I enjoy talking to so many people and will miss seeing them in the hallway and sharing a smile.” 

On a more serious note, when asked what she valued about being at a Christian school, Naomi replied that she values how the Bible and scripture are integrated into everything we do. She also said that the most valuable thing she learned at PCS is knowing: “Why I believe in God and Christianity, and then how to defend that.” A meaningful scripture verse to Naomi 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.

Naomi's future plans include becoming a physical therapist. She is starting on that journey by attending Geneva College in the fall to major in Biology. We wish Naomi the best as she moves on from PCS. You will be missed, Naomi!
