Conclusion

Overall, it was a great year of PPS with lots of club participation. Our teams consistently ranked high in prestigious competitions such as Berkeley CALICO, and we had 100% of our active members promote in USACO. We also had a lot of fun chatting, collaborating, and solving problems in our weekly meetings. Many thanks to the officers this year for running the club.

We'll be seeing a few seniors graduate this year; we'll miss you! Come back and visit often! For the rest of you, we look forward to seeing you again for the 2026-27 school year. Have a great summer, everyone, and have fun coding!
