It’s #ThrowbackThursday…all the way back to 1937. While some things at PCHS have definitely changed (models of vehicles) it appears that some things never change — in this case students having reserved parking spots at school, although in 2025 it’s more like “unofficial spots.”


Juniors spent the morning touring N. Platte’s MPCC campus. This afternoon they attended a college fair in Ogallala. Trips like these are a part of our intentional effort to get PCS students on the campuses of community, trade, small-college and university campuses prior to HS graduation.
