PHS has been awarded with a 2015 Top AFS School Award for the school’s partnership with AFS (American Field Service) to promote global citizenship through intercultural learning. The award will allow a PHS student interested in studying abroad with AFS next year to receive a discount on program fees.

Since 2000, PHS has sent 20 American students abroad and has hosted four international students.  Senior Madalena Marques, an exchange student from Portugal, presented the award to PHS on behalf of AFS. The distinction was awarded to 80 schools in the nation.
