PCHS Class of 2000

10/26/2025

We were thinking it’d be nice to donate our leftover reunion funds to PCHS on behalf of the Class of 2000. 💙
Half will go to the PCHS Closet, which supports students with essentials like food, clothing, and hygiene items, and the other half will support PCHS curriculum needs.

If anyone would like to contribute a little extra on behalf of our class, you can Venmo Kelli (-McDonald-9) by November 16, or call the school directly at 618-357-5013 to make an individual donation.

🎉 25 YEARS — and we still know how to throw a party! 🎉

Kelli, Sarah, and I want to give a HUGE shoutout to everyone who helped make our reunion one for the books! 💙

✨ **Taps & Vine Social House** — thanks for the incredible hospitality (and the drinks that made us feel 25 again). ☕️🍻
🐾 **PCHS & Haven Hicks** — the tour was the perfect walk down memory lane!
🍕 **Carns Pizza**— still tasting like the year 2000.
🚌 **Enjoy The Ride Bus Rentals** — the lap through town was pure nostalgia!
🎶**Mallory Higgerson**- walking in to the school song was a fun surprise!!

📸 **Class of 2000:** Drop your pics below or tag us — we want to see every throwback moment!

Tonight is the night, Class of 2000! (aka Children of the Corn)

If you’re joining the bus tour, we’re meeting at Taps & Vines at 5:15 PM — BYOB in a covered container. If you don't make it onto the bus before the end of the fight song, you might regret it!

The reunion officially kicks off at 7 PM at Taps & Vines — join us anytime! 💙 Carns Pizza will be served.

Didn’t RSVP? No problem. Just come! We want to see YOU there!

And if you’re on the fence… don’t think — just come! You won’t regret it! 😄

Let’s celebrate, reconnect, and make some new memories together! ✨

Class of 2000, Senior Year Flashback!

The world was buzzing about Y2K 💾, NSYNC and Britney ruled the radio 🎤, and Survivor and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire were about to take over TV 📺.

We rocked frosted tips, low-rise jeans, and butterfly clips 🦋, burned mix CDs for every mood 💿, and counted down the days until graduation 🎓.

It was the end of one millennium and the start of another… and somehow, we made it through without the world crashing! 😎

Here’s to the memories, the friendships, and the unforgettable Class of 2000. Can’t wait to see everyone Friday! 💙

🌟 Junior year (’98-’99) throwback!

We were riding the hype of The Matrix, Fight Club, and 10 Things I Hate About You on repeat.

Napster changed how we shared music and SpongeBob made its debut.

✨Sophomore year vibes✨
We were living in the Titanic era, blasting Spice Girls & boy bands on our Discman, and catching all the drama from the Monica Lewinsky scandal on the news.

Who remembers our freshmen year Homecoming float??? What was the theme and who are the lucky guys riding the float?
