PHS StuCo started a new tradition this year. The day before each athletic/activities senior night, the seniors presented teachers and staff of their choosing with a difference maker shirt. They were asked to select a teacher or staff member who has made an impact on their high school career. Congrats to all the teachers and staff selected this year.

Dual Honors: PHS High School Diploma and Associate's Degree Graduates
Congratulations to 16 Pacific High School students who will graduate on Sunday with a high school diploma and an Associate of Arts degree. These students attended the Early College Partnership (ECP) full-immersion, early entrance to college program located on the campus of St. Louis Community College (STLCC) at Wildwood. Students attend the ECP for two years, replacing the junior and senior years of traditional high school. While in ECP, students engage in a curriculum consisting of all college coursework taught by professors at STLCC. Upon successful completion, students earn an Associate of Arts degree, as well as a high school diploma. With a solid foundation in both high school and higher education, these individuals are poised to excel in their chosen careers and make significant contributions to their academic goals and beyond.
Pacific High School students in good academic standing may apply during their sophomore and junior years. The application process opens in December for the following school year. Contact Dr. Flexsenhar, Director of Alternative Programs, at 636-334-4580 for more information.
Pacific High School Graduation is set for Sunday, May 19, 2024, at 6 PM in the PHS Stadium. Live stream will be available on the MVR-III YouTube channel at bit.ly/MVR3YT. #MVNation

Established for special needs students across the district, the 2024 edition was coordinated by co-chairs Stacy Kloeppel, Cathy Bearden, Erin Tesar, and Jordan Garlik. Participants are matched with PHS student buddies, and they are free to experience stations on the stadium field for gross motor skills, sports, sensory areas, face painting, and much more.
