Well Done Warrior: John
April 26, 2024
John has been at PCS for three years and has made the most of them! John is on the soccer, basketball, and men's volleyball teams at PCS. In his senior year, he has been a captain on the soccer and basketball teams. He said that his memories associated with athletics are his favorite memories from PCS. John added that he will greatly miss his friends as they all go off to college. When asked what he valued the most about going to a Christian school, John replied that the small class sizes make for good connections with those in the school community.
In the fall, John will be attending Geneva to study political science. We will miss John's easy-going personality and wish him the very best as he moves forward from PCS. Well done, Warrior!
