Eagle Scout Project Benefits PHMS Outdoor Classroom PHMS’s Outdoor Classroom benefitted from an Eagle Scout Project lead by TJ High School student Andy Atkinson and Troop 1843. The Outdoor Classroom was established in 2006 in honor of middle school teacher Robert Brown. Mr. Brown passed away in 2005. Staff and students developed the classroom to remember Bob and his love for the outdoors. Andy Atkinson saw the classroom was in need of some improvements and requested to complete the project for his Eagle Scout Badge. The project included making a gravel pathway, mulching areas around the classroom, power washing the seating areas and memorial plaques, and setting up two planting beds. Thanks to Andy’s leadership, the classroom is ready for our students and the new school year. We also want to recognize and thank Mark Generalovich, Thomas Russo, Russel Pancoast, and Joe Carrol for their work on the Robert Brown Outdoor Classroom in previous years.
