#EASTCon26
We had the best time celebrating some of our PJHS Millionaire Readers with a special lunch at Olive Garden! These students read over ONE MILLION words this year, and we couldn’t be prouder of their dedication and love for reading.🍝📖
And the celebration continued with Our big Reading Reward Party where over 250 students enjoyed ice cream served by an amazing team of Junior High parents and teachers who jumped in to help make the event special. A big shout-out to all the volunteers who helped scoop, serve, and keep the fun going! 🍦only pic I was able to take was before the kids came out & parents posed up for us!
We are so proud of our readers and grateful for the incredible PJHS community that supports our students and their love of books. More celebrations to come! 📚

Our 8th graders had a great time at our Be Pro Be Proud Career Day on Friday! Students learned about a variety of career opportunities including customer service, budgeting, skilled trades, state police careers, nursing, automation, and many more.
It was a day full of hands-on learning, exploring future career paths, and hearing from professionals in our community. We wrapped up the day with a cookout for lunch, which the students really enjoyed!
Thank you to everyone who took the time to speak with our students and help make the day a success.
