🔬✨ Awesome Science Happening at PHS! ✨🔬

Yesterday, Emma Patton's AP Biology class had a blast in the lab, statistically examining the difference in filling between regular and Double Stuffed Oreos! 🍪📊

Her classes prove that challenging learning can be super fun! Emma creates a welcoming environment where students feel confident tackling a difficult course. Last year, her students performed extremely well on the rigorous AP exam, exceeding the state average by 6%! Way to go, Dragons! 🧪🐉

Let's make this athletic school year a great one for everyone! 📣

A friendly reminder to all spectators that we're committed to providing a positive and educational environment for our student-athletes. Athletics are a vital part of the learning experience, and your support is a crucial part of that.

Remember to follow the Board of Education Policy FMFE, the Spectator Code of Conduct:

Display good sportsmanship by being modest in victory and gracious in defeat.
Direct your energies to encouraging your team rather than booing the officials.
Accept the judgment of the coach.
Realize that obscene cheers, littering, throwing of objects, and verbal indignities directed toward athletes, spectators, or officials have no place in school athletics. (Full Code of Conduct in graphic)

Let's model the behavior we want to see in our athletes. By working together, we can ensure a fun, safe, and positive experience for all participants. Thank you for your support and cooperation!
