THANKSGIVING HOLIDAYS


Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive

As we approach Thanksgiving, many of us are planning our holiday meals.  Unfortunately, 25.5% of the children in Harris County are currently in a food insecurity situation, meaning their families are uncertain about where their next meal is coming from.  The Pin Oak National Junior Honor Society is teaming up with four former Pin Oak students attending Bellaire and Carnegie High Schools to sponsor a Canned Food Drive this week.  We are setting our goal at 2,500 cans, which is just over two cans per student.  Please look into your hearts, AND into your pantries, and help support this cause that has a direct impact on our community.

Thanks for a Great ChargerFest!

A big heartfelt THANK YOU to our POMS community for making ChargerFest a success! What a way to show your Charger pride!  Thank you to the ChargerFest committees, volunteers, teachers, staff, administrators, students, and families for all their hard work and dedication.  The performances were spectacular, the International Fest was magnificent, the Art Show was extraordinary, and most importantly, our kids had a blast.  Many thanks to our underwriters, sponsors, families, and friends for supporting our school!  Looking forward to seeing you all at the next ChargerFest!
