We are beyond thrilled to announce that senior Paisley Nichols has been named an Oklahoma Academic All-Stater!
This is one of the most exclusive honors a student in Oklahoma can receive. To even be considered for this award, a student must earn a composite ACT score of 30 or higher, SAT score of 1370 or higher, or be a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. From that elite pool of applicants, only 100 students are selected statewide based on a rigorous evaluation of their:
Academic Achievement
Leadership Abilities
Motivation
Character
Paisley, your relentless pursuit of excellence and your integrity in and out of the classroom have truly set you apart. We couldn't be prouder to have you representing the Dragons!
Please join us in the comments by congratulating Paisley on this massive achievement!
Thank you, Officer Salgado for being a leader our students can look up to and a constant support for our staff. We are lucky to have you in our halls!

We are so excited to welcome our Dragons back to school tomorrow! If you are a bus rider, check out our reminders for bus rider safety and see our transportation page on the school's website for more info.
*Be to your assigned bus stop at least 5 mins early. (Be patient tomorrow as the bus reaches you safely and stay warm at the bus stop!)
*Keep away from the "danger zone" which is the 10ft around the bus.
*Wait until the bus is completely stopped and doors open to approach the bus.
*Be mindful of your surroundings at school bus stops. Other vehicles, properties, etc.
*Obey all school bus rules.
While we know everyone is eager to get back to class, many of our district’s secondary roads and rural routes remain slick and unsafe for travel. The safety of our students and staff is our #1 priority.

A huge thank you goes out to our transportation, maintenance, and custodial staff at Purcell Public Schools for their hard work preparing our buildings for students and staff to return after the winter storm and checking to ensure routes are safe. Your dedication and behind-the-scenes efforts do not go unnoticed, and we are grateful for all you do to keep our schools safe and ready.
Due to the ongoing impacts of the winter storm, Purcell PS and all offices will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, January 28th for a snow day.
