In 2016, PCIS became a WFSS International Partner School by completing the Iron Giraffe Challenge. After reading "A Long Walk to Water" by Linda Sue Park, our 6th grade ELA students were inspired and motivated to raise $1,000 to place a water drilling rig in South Sudan in order for children there, especially young ladies, to have clean water. By doing so, these children no longer had to carry water to their tribes and could now attend school.
