Watching David Hilger be recognized by the Heart of Oklahoma Chamber of Commerce as Purcell Educator of the Year was a tremendous honor. Mr. Hilger does many essential tasks in our District as part of the Technology Department that impact us daily. However, where he excels and has for many years is as an outstanding Band Director. David has accumulated incredible accolades over the years, most of which are all at Purcell PS. He is recognized statewide as one of the best, and we are fortunate to have David on our team. Congratulations to David on this incredible recognition and honor. We are so proud of you!
