PC's Rick Mellor, Beth Glascott and Charlie Brown recalled former student Adam Goldberg OPC '94, creator of ABC's The Goldbergs, in an interview with KYW Newsradio's Steve Tawa.
ABC recently picked up Goldberg's new, untitled pilot, based on the teachers of "William Penn Academy." We can't wait! Read the KYW story.
Nine students from Escuela Martín Buber participated in a foreign exchange program last winter, and seven PC students visited Argentina this summer to complete the exchange.
Over 30 Upper School students received year-end awards. View photos.
PC educators have sought to create “windows and mirrors” when teaching about and discussing diversity, equity and inclusion.
We recently hosted students from Argentina as part of a two-week foreign exchange program. The visiting students engaged in various educational, cultural and recreational activities.
Upper School students partnered with Lower School students to develop outdoor learning experiences for the playground.
Registration is now open for session two of our Lower School After School Program, which runs Monday, Dec. 4 to Friday, March 8!
Upper School students were honored at the annual Prize Assembly on May 26. View photos and the event video.
Functions and Trigonometry, an Upper School math course, is designed to reinforce and build upon topics learned in algebra and geometry, with an emphasis on problem solving, multiple representations of functions, and written and verbal communication skills.
Students experience the thrill of competition in academic clubs like Mock Trial, Ethics Bowl and MathCounts.
