During the Spring semester, a blood drive was held at both PES and DCMS and a wager was made between principals, Mr. Keith Walker and Dr. Scott King. The principal from the school that collected the most usable pints of blood got to pie the face of the principal who came in second. Dr. King and Parsons Elementary won the wager and the pie in the face for Coach Walker took place today during PES's PAWS celebration day. Student John Luke Box did the honors of pieing Coach Walker today while the PES students watched. Thank you to everyone who donated blood for the Spring drive and for these awesome principals for being such great sports!
Tonight, we will celebrate with our Riverside class of 2023 as they become graduates. Graduation will be held at RHS at 7:00pm. Congratulations graduates! We are so proud of you all!
