Freshman Adopt-A-Highway

main image
What do a bunch of ninth graders love to do on a sunny Saturday morning? Pick up trash of course! 

The PCA freshman class is tasked with tidying Egypt Road three times a year via the Adopt-A-Highway program. Each PCA high school student is required to have twenty hours of volunteer service, and these dedicated students are well on their way to fulfilling the requirement. They are making our part of the world a nicer place to be as well!  

We picked up 17 bags of trash (and 2 televisions) and ended the day with lunch at Chick-fil-A. Thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Disrud, Kent and Amy Patrick and Tracy Evans for volunteering their time to supervise our fabulous freshmen.

The excitement builds as the results from our middle school writing project continue to roll in!  Sixth grader Scotty Wrenn received notification that she placed 2nd in the state competition for the Patriots Pen  "What American Means To Me" writing competition! Scotty also took home a $300 prize! Although PCA students often place in the competition at the local level and move on to state, we have not placed in the state competition before. 

Scotty has been invited to a banquet in Greenville, South Carolina to read her essay. Good luck Scotty and PCA is proud of you !
