Effective Monday, October 23, the Titan Market will be closed during Titan Time until further notice.  The decision was made to avoid disruptions to appointments scheduled during that 40-minute block. Most other blocks there will be a DECA student running the market. 

The Titan Market offers an assortment of snacks and drinks such as chips($1.00), candies($0.50), gum ($2.00), ICEE drinks($2.00) Seltzers ($1.00) and water ($1.00). The Titan Market is run by the DECA Club which is supervised by Mr. Cowgill and Mrs. Gates. 

Regarding the hours the Titan Market is open, Business teacher Mr. Cowgill states, “ It’s open when DECA Officers have directed studies and they volunteer to work the store during those blocks”. 

Mr. Cowgill also said, “Currently we have students working 5 out of 7 blocks during the day. 

The Titan market is used as a way to fund DECA’s extracurricular activities. 

Mr. Cowgill says “ The proceeds from the Titan Market goes to the DECA students activities account. The proceeds are used to cover the costs of chaperones, buses , and costs for participating students.” 

New this month, the Coffee Bean re-opened, much to students' delight. Thanks to the Coffee Bean staff, every Friday Titans can enjoy some food during the morning class periods. The Coffee Bean sells a variety of food including bagels, french toast sticks, brownies and more, with everything costing a dollar. 

Sophomore Scott Alther said, “ Carlos got me right like always, good experience , good times good people.” 

Kaitlyn Baio, also a sophomore, stated,“I think it is a great place to get food in the morning and engage with the kids from the PACE Program. I enjoy talking to them and seeing their smiles."

Pembroke High School always makes an effort to help those in need, from Alzheimer's to breast cancer to childhood illness. An upcoming opportunity for doing some good is pink day! October is breast cancer awareness month, and Pembroke is uniting in order to create awareness for those suffering from breast cancer, and ways that average people can contribute to ending breast cancer! Pembroke’s Pink Day is October 20, giving the school a chance to come together for a great cause! 

Also in October, PHS students and staff participated in the Alzheimer's Walk fundraiser. They raised over $1,500. Another event that raised awareness was Go Gold. 

Senior Abigail Newman, a member of Student Council, said, "I think it's important that PHS participates in fundraisers like these to raise awareness and get involved with the community in a positive way."

Go gold is a foundation intended to shine light on childhood illness, specifically cancer. The foundation is there to invite communities to “Go Gold” and create events in order to raise money for children with cancer. The symbol that represents the premise of the movement is a golden ribbon, which is incorporated into all of the events.This kind of foundation is so important and effective in following through on its goal,it results in more childhood cancer research. 

     On Homecoming eve, PHS took on North Quincy in football at Pembroke High School for the Homecoming game. It was a tough loss for Pembroke, with a final score of 43-32. At the beginning of the game students believed Pembroke had the win. The score at halftime was 26-14 with Pembroke still winning. Soon after, things began to turn. 

Senior Captain Will McNamara says, “It was a tough game but we all still had fun.”

Although it was a disappointing game the Titan Times male student athlete of the month Will Johnson scored 3 touchdowns for the Titans.

Students wore their class colors to the game. Freshman in gray, Sophomores in white, Juniors in red, and Seniors in blue. 

 Besides it being Pembroke's Homecoming football game, it was also senior night. Seniors Andrew Chahed, Turner Gilmore, Captain Cole Griffin, Nehemiah Hotz, Captain Will Johnson, Caleb Jones, Brenden Kanya, Captain Will McNamara, Captain Patrick Norman, Evan O’Brien, Mina Samaan, Cam Wilson, and Hunter Burke were recognized. In addition, senior cheerleaders Rachel Kelleher, Hailey Burke, Caroline Clarke, and Sam Guthro walked the field with their families.

Saturday October 14th was Pembroke High's Annual Homecoming dance! The dance ran from 7pm-10 pm and was attended by PHS students from grades 9-12.

Titans were dressed accordingly to the dress code of “semi formal” and were ready to have a blast at this years homecoming. Outfits ranged from shorter dresses with sparkles to some longer dresses. Meanwhile, most guys at the dance could been seen in dress shirts and ties. Student Council provided snacks and drinks such as an assortment of chips, candies, cookies, water and gatorade. 

There was a lot of dancing and singing. It’s safe to say that life long memories were made that night, and there was a photo booth picture station with goofy head bands and signs to make sure of it.
