We sent our first MathCounts team in several years to competition today and they did pretty well!
* Our team placed 2nd overall out of 14 schools in Southwest Michigan and qualified for the state tournament.
* 7 of our members individually qualified for the state tournament.
And our very own Shaurya K. was the OVERALL INDIVIDUAL winner of the entire competition!
This is even more amazing because Shaurya is one of our two 6th graders on the team!
Congratulations Pioneers, Mrs. Bishop (teacher sponsor), and Jason S., a junior at PCHS and coach of our MathCounts team!
Good luck at the state tournament at MSU in March!

Be on the lookout for your grade wide celebration event in the very near future!
Thank you to everyone that donated a pair of shoes. Thank you to our front office staff and student Career Explorers for managing collection and bagging! Whether 1 or 100, your donation helped us reach our goal as we continue to raise funds for our comfort dog Winston.
He's now in the building, continuing his training, and loving the love! Thank you again! Have a wonderful weekend!
