Shoutout to the Week 1 Top Steppers!
Congratulation! Lynn Bayless - October PHS Staff Member of the Month
Here is a tribute from one of her colleagues:
Ms. Bayless is a dedicated teacher who has created a culture of high standards in her classroom. She teaches a wide variety of student abilities, but all her students show growth. She has excellent classroom management. She teaches multiple subjects as well as night school. She exemplifies flexibility in being willing to change teaching practices. She also is a mentor to students after school hours by employing them at the ballpark. She always has a big smile and something nice to say.

Pink Out Little League night Thursday, October 14th.
Ms. Matthews leadership class chose the Purcell Animal Shelter as a local Passion Project to donate items to. Ms. Louise was so gracious to show us around, let us pet the animals, and talk to us about the importance of being an advocate for animals. If you are ever able to donate items they always need Clorox, Clorox wipes, laundry soap, clumping litter, Dawn dish soap, dog/cat toys, fancy feast wet food, and paper towels.

We didn’t get the result we hoped for last night but our football team and coaches fought hard the entire night. We are 2-2 heading into homecoming week with an important stretch of games ahead. We had a fun day of Friday festivities with cheer and band kicking off the day with a March through the junior high halls. Our cheerleaders again put on a great pep rally during the afternoon. Big thanks to our cheer sponsor Kerri Raper and to Coach Raper, Senior cheerleaders and Parker for emceeing the rally. Thank you to all who came and supported and a big thanks to Washington High School and Warriors for Freedom for honoring our veterans.
