WELCOME TO HOME OF P-VILLE by Haseeb Vaid - Check out this website by a 2012 Period 2 Student. Haseeb's plan is to have a more frequently (daily) updated site (unlike this one which is weekly at best). So if info at this site is outdated then check out Haseeb's Home of of P-Ville website.


WWII EUROPE ASSIGNMENTS are listed at Technical Thompson's Website. At this student website, students can find assignment word documents, some power points and other supplementary information on the WWII unit from last year.





























Mr P's favorite WWII Film is called THE GREAT ESCAPE. He usually watches it after school this time of year. He has stopped mentioning it in class because so few have actually showed up to watch it. Check it out on your own or find out if P is watching it during P7 Cinema anytime soon. 





























































































Ask Mr P to talk about Civilization and Its Discontent. 
(Really interesting stuff but... Cancelled - Lack of time. Perhaps for P7. Seems like a bunch of good lessons this year have been cancelled due to lack of time. Too bad... too bad.) 
























Get out of the office and into the sunshine



































Summer is coming!
