Young Alum Come Home
  On Wednesday, January 7th, 2015 Preston High School held a Young Alum Brunch. PHS classes of ’11,’12, ’13,’14 came to visit and reconnect with friends. Our current senior class joined them in a delicious brunch of bagels, fruit,and juice. Afterwards, the Young Alum graciously answered questions from the senior class about life after Preston. The event was a wonderful, heartwarming experience for all.

Preston Varsity Cheer are the Grand Champions!
 

 On Sunday, January 11 the Preston High School Varsity Cheerleaders competed out at the Universal Cheerleaders Association (UCA) Competition at Hofstra University. The Varsity Team, composed of 12 cheerleaders plus 2 alternates took First Place and Grand Champions honors at the event. The Preston Varsity Team truly put on a great performance; hitting all their marks and fully engaging the crowd in their cheer. This competition marks the countdown to the upcoming UCA Cheer Nationals Competition which takes place next month at Disney World, Orlando, Florida. The PHS team hopes to outdo last year’s performance at the national competition and place in the finals. Given the season the team is having thus far, that dream is definitely within reach.
