Stunt games are at 3:00 and 7:00 in the Gil Asa Gym. Beach Volleyball runs from 3:00 - 5:30 on the Beach Volleyball courts adjacent to the District Office. Admission is free for Paso Schools student's courtesy of PRHS Athletics.

CTE Student of the Week: Alex Cisneros

Diligence is one of the most important qualities in the kitchen—whether it’s tackling routine tasks or cleaning up after a long, busy day. Alex shows up every day ready to do both, consistently putting in the effort and taking pride in the work. Congratulations, Alex!
 

Secondary Scholar of the Week: Clover Gonzalez!

Clover exemplifies what it means to be a model Bearcat through her outstanding academic prowess and consistently positive attitude. As a Peer Communicator she serves as a dependable role model—listening with empathy, supporting classmates, and helping to create an inclusive classroom culture.
Her recent acceptance to CSUN is a well‑earned milestone that reflects her hard work and commitment; she should be very proud of this accomplishment. Congratulations, Clover!
