Jake Topkis, writer and producer, graduated from PCHS in 2008 and has been working with the same group of PCHS crew members since 2004. Topkis started working on the short films in 2009.

Please see Jake Topkis, A-11 PCHS will offer more than 20 online classes PCSD has partnered with several districts throughout the state By MEGAN YEITER The Park Record The Park City High School will offer its students the opportunity to enroll in online classes this year. Lori Gardner, Park City School District director of curriculum and instruction, said Senate Bill 65 will allow students across the state to enroll in online classes through utahstudentsconnect.org. Gardner explained that the courses are free for students who enroll through this organization, but students would have to pay if they enrolled in Brigham Young University online courses, for example. She said the district has partnered with Davis, Granite, Jordan, Murray, Nebo and Tooele school districts to offer students in grades nine through 12 this option. According to Gardner, the online classes through Utahstudentsconnect.org are being taught by teachers within the consortium. Garner said there are five Park City teachers involved. "At this point, we're not seeing it as a drain, because we're collaborating. All of the districts are using current manpower for teaching the classes. So we see a minimal cost to the district," Gardner said. She said students have always been able to take online classes, but in the past it has been for private schools. "Now students can take advantage from public institutions and not only do they not have to pay, but the district in which the student resides will pay for the student," Gardner said. Gardner said the district has been working on the program since March and will offer more than 20 classes. "Basically what were providing Please see Online classes, A-11 .•,714-1933.
