Aside from the language and social science courses, PSHS students
have biology, chemistry, physics, computers, and math on ALL year
levels from 1st to 4th year. My daughter is 3rd year, and is doing the
CISCO networking course (she finished C in 2nd year). She has learned to
crimp cat5 UTP cables of all kinds (computer to hub, hub to hub, etc),
and design computer rooms with people and computers in them. Add to this
the requirement that they learn to play soccer, pingpong, volleyball,
and basketball, and sing in a choral contest, and act as Sita in a
school play.
