Attention PSD Military Families!
If you are an active-duty or veteran parent or guardian, please complete this brief survey to help us understand how our school can best support your family.
📚✨ Mrs. Tanner wears many hats at Pottsville High School…and somehow manages to excel in every one of them!
As the head of the English Department, Mrs. Tanner teaches AP Literature while also inspiring one section of tenth-grade English students. This year, her AP Literature students achieved outstanding results, with 11 of 16 students (68.8%) earning a qualifying score of 3 or higher on the AP Exam. What an incredible accomplishment! 🎉
The success didn’t stop there. Mrs. Tanner’s sophomore English students also posted remarkable ATLAS results this spring, with 100% of her students earning a Level 3 or Level 4. That means every single student demonstrated proficiency at or above grade level—a testament to their hard work and Mrs. Tanner’s exceptional instruction.
And yes…this former Disney princess (literally!) and proud Pottsville graduate continues to bring a little magic to our campus every day!
Congratulations to Mrs. Tanner and her incredible students! Thank you for making PHS a place where high expectations, hard work, and a love of learning continue to thrive. 🖤💛
