Student Intern- William Goodale

Student Intern:

William Goodale

William is a senior at Pleasantville High School.

As Will interns for us this winter/spring, he will be learning about the ins and outs of non-profit work and exploring what kinds of paths his own skills and gifts can lead him on. Will has been a volunteer with PvilleYI since we started, and we are so excited to welcome him to serve in this new way.

Will is participating in the Trojans at Work program at PHS. This program allows students, while attending high school, to gain valuable real world working experience while earning high school credit. We are proud to partner with PHS in this way.

Look for Will’s contributions this year!

Homecoming Tailgate 2021

LET’S GO TROJANS! PvilleYI had a BLAST pre-gaming with the community! We served free Orange Crush Slushies and shared about our upcoming building project. We love getting out in the community and spreading joy!

Thanks to the Pleasantville Betterment Organization for putting on such a FUN event. We were so excited to participate!

Thank you to Bruce Crozier and Celebrate Youth at Celebrate Church, Knoxville for letting us borrow your EPIC slushy machine!

Homecoming Parade 2021

As everyone in town knows, We LOVE a good parade! This year the school’s theme was the 1960s!

We chose to use the Beach Boys hit “Be True To Your School” as our float theme, and we had SO much fun blasting Beach Boys tunes along the parade route! We threw out tiny beach balls, Hawaiian leis, and of course, CANDY!

We love how our community comes together for Homecoming festivities! We thought the rain was going to slow us down a bit, but thankfully it stopped just in time.

GO TROJANS!

Homecoming Window Painting 2021

We are always impressed with the incredible creativity that Pleasantville kids put on display when they are given the opportunity!

We partnered with the PHS Stuco and the Art Department to have some awesome painted windows for Homecoming!

Each class sent in a design for approval. Then, teams of students from each grade came to paint their masterpieces. We absolutely LOVE all of them! If you drove through town, you probably saw them. But if you didn’t, here they all are!
