SPCPA NHS Spirit Week is almost at an end ☹
Thursday was Iconic Picture of Little You. Students took a stroll down memory lane, found their most iconic pic, and recreated it for the world to see. Staff icon Ms. Reinhardt also got in on the fun.

SPCPA NHS Spirit Week continues! Wednesday was "Favorite Pop Culture Moment." Though we cannot confirm, we are pretty sure that Tom Holland was not being carried around under the hat of a student. That seems to just be a wild internet rumor. We are looking forward to the iconic pictures of our artists today!💚🖤

A school favorite returns!

At SPCPA, creativity doesn’t stop when class ends. Our D&D Club brings students together to build worlds, tell stories, solve problems, take risks, and, occasionally, roll a very unfortunate number. D'oh!

New adventurers welcome.
Experienced players welcome.
Imagination required.

The club gathers Thursdays in the Science Wizard's Lair after school.
