Once again the Pikeville Drama department is finishing a busy year. This year’s spring Drama production will be performed February 19-21, 2010. We will be performing the classic “Our Town” by Thorton Wilder. “Our Town” is a presentational life drama that provides the audience with an informal, intimate, and compelling human drama. One of the finest achievements of the current stage, Thorton Wilder has transmuted the simple events of a human life into a universal reverie. He has given it a profound, strange, unworldly significance – brimming over with compassion. “Our Town” has escaped from the formal barrier of the modern theatre into the quintessence of acting, thought, and speculation. SHOW TIMES ARE AS FOLLOWS: Friday February 19 7:00 PM Saturday February 20 7:00 PM Sunday February 21 3:00 PM The Pikeville Drama Department will perform “Our Town” February 19-21, 2010.

Sachdeva Scores Perfect on ACT PDF Print E-mail

Wednesday, January 20 2010 It's something most students only dream of, making a perfect score on the ACT. But in December of 2009 that is exactly what happened for Pikeville High School student, Shikha Sachdeva. For Sachdeva, this was her third try, the first time scoring a perfect 36. “I was pretty excited about the score. I thought I had done well, maybe a 34 or 35, but not a 36,” commented Sachdeva. As a freshman she scored a 32, as a sophomore a 35, and still must take the test again. The state requires all high school juniors to take the test as a group in March to see how prepared they are to move to the next level. “Students take the test in reading, math, science and English and making a perfect 36 is incredible,” said Ann Samons, Pikeville High School Guidance Counselor. “ We are thrilled with Shikha’s score, but not at all surprised.” In the 2009 Kentucky high school graduating class only 13 students scored perfect when taking the test as sophomore, junior or senior. “We are very proud of Shikha’s accomplishment. This is an indicator of years of hard work and dedication. While Pikeville High School has had more than its fair share of gifted students over the years, only one other has scored a 36 on the ACT,” said PHS Principal Royce Mayo. “Shikha has prepared herself well for the challenges that she will face in college and beyond.” The 16 year old has narrowed her choice of colleges to Duke or Brown University. She plans to study sports medicine and become an orthopedic surgeon. Shikha is the daughter of Drs. Rakesh and Seema Sachdeva of Pikeville.
