A few words to our returning and new families at PCS:
Thank you for choosing PCS for your child’s education and welcome to a new school year. As a student of PCS, your child(ren) will have the blessing of receiving a Catholic education that has the objective of forming hearts, building minds and changing lives.

Let us pray that the unity we experience in this school community will keep us together as a community of learners and believers.
Blessings and Peace,
