Dragons giving back. Our boys choir students were in need of new dress clothes for upcoming performances. We needed $500 to purchase the necessary clothes (see pic). Mayra Munoz, PHS Spanish teacher, heard about the need, and Spanish Club paid for the new clothes. Ms. Munoz will not like this recognition. Because that's just the way she is. However this is just one of many examples of Spanish Club, Mayra Munoz, and her students stepping up to help out others.
