Welcome back Panther Families for another year. Once again, we are giving out our Panther State of Mind Award to a student, parent, volunteer, or staff member who exemplifies The Panther State of Mind: Do what is right, Do your very best, and treat others how you want to be treated. This month, the award is going to Doug Bashore. Doug is our maintenance supervisor, aka the Panther MacGyver. He is always quick in finding solutions for our aging buildings, on top of making sure the custodians have what they need to keep our buildings looking sharp, and is always willing to lend a hand, helping with anything. Doug works countless hours making sure our buildings are ready and safe for students. He is also the kind of co-worker who would and has literally given the shirt off of his back to help our school family. The next time you see Doug, give him a high-five or a handshake of congratulations!

Because last year was so successful, once again, PJHS and PHS students will be out trick-or-treating for non-perishable food items for our local food pantry. On Saturday, October 25, during the Oakwood and Paulding communities' annual trick-or-treat times, our teenagers will be out volunteering to help others. These students may or may not be dressed up for Halloween, but they will be carrying around BECKS bright yellow reusable shopping bags for non-perishable donations. 

Whether you donate one item or 100, every donation is appreciated and will be given to the food bank in your community. Students participating will collect the donations and drop them off that night at the Caring is Sharing Food Bank before 8:30 pm. 

Please help spread the word by not only sharing this post!!
