Over 100 students gathered this morning for the See You at the Pole event! It was a fantastic opportunity for fellowship and community building.

A big thanks to our FCA sponsor, Kurt Gray, and our local churches for helping to facilitate this event.

Our students are getting great experience in the community! 👏

This week, they visited Purcell Municipal Hospital and FlexWorx to learn about important real-world skills. At the hospital, they learned about the ER check-in process and even discovered the summer VolunTeen program. At FlexWorx, they got a personal tour from trainer Josh Eck and learned about gym memberships.

A huge thank you to all the staff at Purcell Municipal Hospital and FlexWorx for welcoming our students and giving them these valuable life lessons! ❤️ #RealWorldReady #CommunityLearning #PurcellDragons

Let's hear it for our amazing Purcell High School staff! 🥳👏

Our coaches went all out for Homecoming dress-up days, and we love their commitment to the theme.

Coach Matt Lohn gave us a perfect throwback to the early 2000s, and Coach Cole Sharp channeled the 90s with some seriously retro baggy and cargo shorts. As for Coach Ethan Scott... well, we're not sure if he was in costume or just dressing for a regular Thursday! 😉

Thanks to all our teachers and staff for getting into the Homecoming spirit and making the week so fun for our students! #DragonPride #PHSHomecoming #DressUpDay 🐉🎉
