Amazing chalk art on display as part of ROAD Week festivities at PHS last week. We certainly have some talented artists @ PHS. Pictured are Madelyn Hawley and Addison Harjo. The winning entry was by Sierra Linker (not pictured). Her work is the dragon with my shadow (sorry!)
The Purcell Dragons Boys Basketball team were honored today as 3A Academic State Champions with a collective G.P.A. of 3.8. What an accomplishment and a reflection of their hard work both on the court and in the classroom. We are so proud of these young men.
This week as part of our ROAD Week fundraiser our PHS STUCO helped with the ROAD carnival at the Intermediate. Thank you to the Purcell Intermediate school for everything. It was a great opportunity to build relationships between our older and younger students. Great stuff!
It's been a tremendous year for PHS athletic accomplishments, with great things still ahead. I'm grateful to our sponsors, Dragon Fire All-Sports Boosters, and Mama Dragons for helping making this happen. Please save this date for a chance to celebrate PHS athletes and coaches.
Congratulations to Kelsey Padilla who signed this week with Murray State College for Rodeo Team. Kelsey is a leader in our FFA chapter and just an amazing person and well-liked by all at the high school. We are thrilled for her success and this opportunity. Go Kelsey!
