​Principal's Message to Class of 2018

Pennington High School Class of 2018, many have stated in jest that, “You Can’t Get There from Here,” Indicating that the path might be too difficult to travel, so as to not even attempt such a journey.  I vehemently oppose that suggestion!  "YOU CAN GET THERE FROM HERE!"  Class, just as many past graduates from Pennington High have carved out a path for their success you are capable and prepared for that same opportunity. It can't be overstated that, "You Can Get There From Here," only if you are willing to put in the hard work and combine your intelligence, your aptitude, and your desires. 

Remember class that something great always comes at a price, a price of hard work, hard work that sometimes yieldsvictory and hard work that sometimes yields defeat, and many times yields persecution, but always yields the opportunity for Personal Growth.
