This week in our Advisory class we discussed school safety. Our student's mental health is a critical component of overall safety. I've linked a video with our STUCO President Mercer Martin discussing safety and TEXT 988 with students. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl9E9UQajYQ


Great win on Friday night as our Dragons defeated Lexington 51-6. Our fans were amazing, cheer and band awesome as always, and our football team took care of business. Great night for all! I'm very happy our sign holders were ok after that enthusiastic run-out by our team!





Congrats to PHS Dragon Pride Marching Band. They place 2nd in their division and 14th overall at the Moore Outdoor Music Fest (MOM Fest) over the weekend. This is a young group after graduating a powerhouse senior class last year but not surprisingly, they are rapidly improving!
