This month, the vests have been awarded to Erin Kwok and Jayme Miller. Their colleagues have praised them for their willingness to lend a hand and their positive impact on the school community. Whether through collaboration or simply being there for others, Ms. Kwok and Mr. Miller embody the spirit of teamwork that makes PCMS unique.

Meet Principal Jeff McGowan!

Hi, Lynx families! My favorite thing about being a principal is working with staff and students. A few fun facts about me: I love the “Harry Potter” books. My favorite musician is Bruce Springsteen. If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I would order from Ron’s Drive-In, a restaurant in the Spokane Valley.
