Dragon Families,
Labor Day weekend is not a time to let down our guard. When celebrating the holiday and visiting with family and friends, please continue to be vigilant- wash your hands, wear a face covering and social distance, whenever possible. We appreciate your cooperation so we can remain in school.
We will continue to analyze our local, county and state data and work with our partners at the Health Department and City of Purcell to make a determination about rotating A/B schedule. We will keep you posted in the coming days. Students will return to school as normal on September 8, 2020-September 11, 2020. Have a safe weekend! #MaskUpOK
Reminder that there will be no school on Monday, September 7, 2020 for Labor Day.
Purcell Public Schools will begin serving free lunch and breakfast for all students on September 8th. This gives our food service team time to prepare for additional students. We will not take money beginning today for students who usually eat in the cafeteria.

Attention Athletes: We are eager to begin workouts as early as June 1st for those athletes who wish to participate. As we work to open facilities back up, it is important that we continue to follow safety protocols. Doing so will help keep our students and staff as safe as possible. During this reintegration period, we will follow the guidelines recommended by the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Association(OSSAA). The link to the guidelines is provided below this message. In addition, athletes are asked to bring their own face covering(mask, bandana, etc) and will be asked to wear them during certain activities, including weight training. Athletes should also provide their own water bottle as no personal equipment can be shared.
Parents can be assured that we will be cleaning and disinfecting equipment and surfaces as well as have adequate supplies for handwashing. Social distancing will be practiced when we are able. If we all do our part, we can minimize the opportunity for exposure. Students will not be penalized if they elect an alternate workout they can perform away from district facilities. Coaches will provide an alternate workout upon request.
If you have any questions, please contact Carol Testa(AD) at 442-0099 Ext. #504 or via email at testac@purcellps.org.

Survey for information and input on the next superintendent of Purcell Public Schools
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2019PurcellSuptSearchSurvey
Tonight's high school carnival for ROAD week at the Intermediate has been cancelled.
Purcell Public School administration was alerted Sunday evening about threats made to students and staff on social media. We immediately notified the Purcell Police Department, which has been working diligently on the investigation. We canceled school on Monday to allow the police department the time they needed to conduct a thorough investigation and ensure the safety of our students and staff. We believe, due to the work between the Purcell Police Department and our administration, that we will be able to return to school on Tuesday, March 12th.
Due to an ongoing investigation to a threat made at Purcell High School, Purcell Schools will be closed tomorrow. Monday March 11th. Purcell Schools is working closely with the Purcell Police Department to resolve this matter. The Safety of our students is our primary concern.
Due to information from the National Weather Service and having our students safety as our primary concern Purcell Schools will be closed today due to potential weather conditions during the school day.
The administration office is currently without power. The other buildings in the district have power. We expect it to be back on later this afternoon.
Due to Inclement weather for Bethany, the High School Boys basketball game has been moved to Saturday at 3:30pm. Location is still at Lindsay
Thursdays Junior High Boy's basketball at Lexington will have a different format. 9th grade boys will play at 5pm following with 7th grade and 8th grade boys last. This change is due to Match Play Schedules.
Congratulations to the 8th Girls Basketball team on winning the south division of their conference. They will receive their medal at halftime of the HS girls Match Play game Friday at 4pm.
