They are mentors, cheerleaders, and the guiding lights for our students. It’s Teacher Appreciation Week, and we’re taking a moment to celebrate the incredible educators at Purcell Public Schools!

Teaching is so much more than a lesson plan—it’s the encouragement in the hallway, the extra help after class, and the belief that every student can succeed. To our staff: Thank you for showing up with passion and dedication every single day.

You aren’t just teaching subjects; you’re shaping the future!

Happy National Apprenticeship Week!

Purcell Public Schools partnered with Wayne, Whitebead and Pauls Valley Public Schools early this year to launch the Central Oklahoma Regional Educator Hub or C.O.R.E.. This innovative teacher apprentice program offers a meaningful pathway for staff to earn a bachelor's degree and become certified teachers through on-the-job training - while continuing to serve the communities they know and love!
