Congratulations to PHS student Tanya Mehta on being named one of only 300 Regeneron Science Talent Search Scholars! Regeneron STS is one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious science and math competition for high school seniors. We wish her luck in the finalist round. She and Parkland High School will each receive $2000. She gave a shout out Mrs. Metz, Mrs. Tabarani & all of her teachers for their help & guidance.

The PHS Child Development Club held a holiday stocking collection and was able to fill and deliver 50 Christmas stockings for children to benefit the Salvation Army's Program. Even during the school closure, donations poured in and the students were able to make this program happen. #ParklandProud
