Enrichment Electives

It's an exciting time when August and December roll around! That's when students in Primer - 12th select their Enrichment Electives. A hallmark of PCCS educational program is its Enrichment Electives Program. A preview Week-at-a-Glance is posted each semester. Similar to the college course selection process, students in Primer- 12th select 1st and 2nd choices for each electives period from a myriad list of courses offered which change semester to semester. While some like sports teams and student favorites re offered every semester, the program continues to develop and flouflourish from ideas submitted via student, teacher, and parent surveys.
