Thanks for an amazing Homecoming Day ending with the dance. We loved seeing all kids find a way to connect to school. Cheer organized a fun pep rally, the band was great, Findley awarded the Spirit Stick to Seniors and even had a Hammer Time performance. Can't ask for more
It takes a lot of hard work and dedication from both staff and students to create positive school experiences. Thank you Krysta Matthews, April Trumbo, Emma Rolin, Grant Gish, STUCO, Cheer, and Leadership students for helping make Basketball homecoming a memorable experience.
PEP ASSEMBLY @ 2pm in Reimer Center: Parents and Community welcome.

Congratulations Brendan Bacon, Brody Galyean, and Payson Purcell. These 3 outstanding seniors were named to the Oklahoma Football Coaches Association All-Star Team by class. We are very proud of these young men and their coaches. Go Dragons!
Congratulations Michael O'Neal: PHS Staff Member of the Month: please read a tribute to Michael from one of his colleagues:
Oneal is the perfect example of what an upper level teacher is supposed to be. He has very high expectations for his students, he holds them accountable, and he has excellent classroom management. He has a classroom where rigor is expected and enforced. He has a passion for engaging young minds. He continues his mentorship after they graduate as well. Over the years I have seen numerous former students that are enrolled in college classes that return for his tutoring, guidance, and mentorship.
Thank you Jason Bridwell and State Farm for sponsoring.
