Elena Bizan won the Eastman essay/oratorical Black History contest today. Karima Mbeh was second and Chadea Gipson is 4th place. The contest started in 2020 and Mrs Davis' students have won every year for PT.

Three Pine Tree students advanced in the Black History Month Essay and Oratorical Contest sponsored by the Connect group of Texas Eastman. Students receive two scores, an essay score and an oratorical score. Only the top five essay scores advance to the oratorical round where students deliver a memorized speech. The two scores are combined for a final score and ranking. Congratulations to the following PT students who advanced to the oratorical round and were awarded scholarships. Elena Bazan, first place, $1500 scholarship Karima Mbeh, second place, $1000 scholarship Chadea' Gipson, fourth place, $500 scholarship Congratulations, Pirates!

On Saturday, February 25th, Pine Tree High School Art Students competed at the Region 7 Visual Arts Scholastic Event (VASE) and earned 43 gold medals! This year was our first year back for the in-person event after two years of virtual events. Each student participated in a Juror Interview to discuss and defend the choices they made in their artwork. The interview is roughly 40% of their overall score, with the artwork accounting for 60%. Several of our students submitted two artworks for the competition and received medals for both artworks. Out of the 49 Artworks that competed, ​Pine Tree had 40 ​artworks that received a ​regional ​medal, and three students received ​area ​medals and advanced to the State VASE competition in San Marcos. PTHS Art teachers Caitlin Rutledge, Carmen Gadt, Spring Parnell, and Wayne Gaddis are extremely proud of all of their students for representing Pine Tree High School with this amazing accomplishment.
