Today, our seniors took a special stroll through their elementary schools as part of their final days as Penns Valley students. 💙💛

Students and staff lined the hallways, cheering them on as they walked the halls one last time, reflecting on how far they have come since their elementary school days. The celebration concluded with a picnic lunch and time spent reconnecting with classmates.

As graduation approaches, we are proud of all they have accomplished and look forward to seeing what their futures hold.

🎓 Graduation is set for Friday, June 5, at 6:30 PM.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026!

Mrs. Smith’s 1st Grade class and Miss Trainer’s 4th Grade class have enjoyed being Book Buddies throughout the school year while also working together on fun STEM projects. 📚🤝🔬

Today, the students learned about symmetry and created colorful beach towel designs, making sure each one was symmetrical. 🏖️✏️📐 It was great to see the older and younger students collaborating, learning, and showing their creativity together. 🎨✨

Great job by all of our students! 👏

🎉 Honoring Our Retirees 🎉

As the school year comes to a close, we would like to recognize and celebrate four outstanding individuals who have dedicated many years of service to the Penns Valley community.

Please join us in congratulating Adrian Brindel, Tammy Glasgow, John Devinney, and Karen McCaffery on their retirement! 👏

Their commitment and hard work have helped shape Penns Valley in countless ways. We are incredibly grateful for the time, care, and dedication each of them has given throughout their careers.

A special note regarding Mrs. McCaffery’s photo — pictured are both past and present 6th Grade teachers celebrating alongside her incredible 35 years in education. Mrs. McCaffery spent the first 20 years of her career co-teaching with Mr. Fleagle, creating lasting memories and impacts for generations of Penns Valley students.

While these individuals will certainly be missed, we are excited for them as they begin this new chapter and adventure in life.

Thank you, Adrian, Tammy, John, and Karen, for everything you have done for Penns Valley. We wish you all the best in your retirement and many years of happiness, relaxation, and new memories ahead! 🎓✨

🌟PV Give Back Day 2026 🌟

Today, our Penns Valley Juniors and Seniors spent the day giving back to the community that gives so much to them! 🙌

Students participated in a variety of community service projects throughout the Penns Valley area, including:
🌿 Picking up sticks at the Grange Fair Grounds
🗑️ Cleaning up litter at Colyer Lake
🌸 Weeding and mulching at the Old Gregg School
🪦 Cleaning and fixing headstones at local cemeteries
🎨 Painting a mural at the Centre Hall Fire Company
📚 Reading to children at Your First Page
🏊 Helping organize and paint at the Millheim Pool
📖 Cleaning bookshelves at the Centre Hall Library

This initiative, organized by the PV High School, was created to give our students the opportunity to make a positive impact in the community while learning the value of service, teamwork, and pride in where we live.

It was a fantastic day filled with hard work, smiles, and community spirit — and we are already looking forward to doing it again next year! 👏

Thank you to all of the local organizations and community members who welcomed our students and helped make the day such a success!
