    In Pursuit of Nothing But the Best

    At PTHS D209, we are dedicated educators committed to transforming student lives. Our mission is to help every scholar discover their potential, achieve academic growth, and graduate with a clear plan for the future.

    We believe that students matter most—and they deserve the very best. That’s why equity and excellence are at the core of everything we do. We are intentional in our efforts to:

    • Support academic success

    • Help students discover their strengths

    • Foster meaningful relationships

    • Prepare students to thrive in a global society

    A Community Built on Partnership

    We know that it takes a village to guide scholars toward success. That’s why we work closely with families, community members, and local organizations to ensure students stay on track and focused on the finish line.

    We are a family.
    Together, we ride the Northbound Train to Greatness.
