Since joining our district in August 2023, Scott has consistently demonstrated outstanding dedication, professionalism, and service to our students and staff.
Many of you have likely seen Scott out at our campuses working hard to keep technology running smoothly and responding to support needs with efficiency. He is always willing to step in and help wherever needed, and his positive attitude, teamwork, and commitment to serving others make a difference across our district each day.
We are incredibly grateful for all Scott does to support our students, staff, and school community. Please join us in congratulating him on this well-deserved recognition! 🎉 🐉


🐉 🍎 Last week's Teacher Appreciation celebration reminded us once again how special the Purcell community truly is.
To our parents, families, businesses, organizations, and community members — thank you for the kindness, encouragement, meals, treats, notes, and support you showed our teachers last week. Your generosity and appreciation are treasured. Our teachers work tirelessly to serve students each day, and it was incredible to see our community pour back into them in such meaningful ways.
We also want to recognize and celebrate our Teachers of the Year, who were honored last week with a luncheon hosted by district administrators. Tonight, they were further recognized by Purcell Public Schools' Board of Education for their outstanding dedication, leadership, and impact on our students.
Thank you to all of our educators for the difference you make every single day. Thank you again to the Purcell community for supporting our schools and staff. 🍎 🐉





While the week is ending, our gratitude for our educators never does. To the mentors, the cheerleaders, the late-night graders, and the magic-makers: Thank you! You aren’t just teaching a curriculum; you are shaping the future of our community, one student at a time.
Happy Friday to the best teachers on the planet!

While our teachers make it look easy, we know the hours of prep, the late-night grading, and the constant thoughtfulness that goes into every lesson.

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.

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! This initiative is sponsored by the OPSRC and partnership with Edwell.
