PHS ROAD Week is approaching! Our STUCO and Leadership students will lead a week-long fundraiser for worthy causes in our community. They will release more information in the coming days! The schedule of events are linked below.
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a school sponsored recognition of seniors. We are sharing at the request of parents who are organizing this recognition of our 2025 graduates.
It is time to honor the class of 2025 with the hanging of the Senior banners on Green Ave. Banners will be hung by the City of Purcell the week of spring break and be on display for the last 9 weeks. This year, the double-sided banners will not be available to keep, due to privacy consent requirements. You will however have the option to purchase a single sided individual banner with only your student on it for a reduced price! Please contact Char Page at 405-924-0115 if you have any questions. To order your banner(s) please visit the website below.

April Trumbo: PHS Staff of the Month!
April teachers computer science and serves as our National Honor Society and TSA sponsor. April is such a valuable asset to our staff & students. She is the model employee who seeks to serve others and help improve the lives of our students. She is very skilled at embedding her lessons with relevant skills that students need. Read what one of her colleagues wrote about her:
April always has a smile on her face and is ready to help any and everyone she can. This includes students and staff alike. I hear her hard at work teaching every single hour and engaging kids in her technology classes in an effective way. She has been a text or phone call away whenever I needed her, and deserves so much the recognition for all she does.
---Krysta Matthews, PHS Algebra 2 Teacher.
