PHS School Counselor, Emily Johnson, was recently a presenter at San Diego State University for a Counselor Fellowship program through MCAN. Way to go, Mrs. Johnson.
One of the PHS LINKS II students, Hailey, completed a special piece of art for her final project. The piece, which includes several student handprints in the backdrop, is a beautiful addition to PHS. According to the artist, she is hopeful that "When people look at the mural, I want them to feel welcomed into the school and feel a sense of belonging. Feeling included is a big thing in high school. I want people to feel like they belong in our school especially in today's world." Special thanks to Hailey for this beautiful piece and for the reminder of the importance of including others. Plainwell Pride!

Four students in Mrs. Gonyeau's first grade class at Starr Elementary finished the school year as Super Improvers. Throughout the year they earned stars based on academics, behavior, overcoming a difficulty socially or emotionally, and perseverance. Once each student earned ten stars, they move up the "Super Improver" ladder! There are 10 levels starting with "Beginner" and working all the way up to "Living Legends!" These students made it all the way to the top of the ladder and were named Super Improver “Living Legends”. Way to go, Rock Starrs!
