Our Dragon Brew student-led business served coffee and frappes at the Purcell Intermediate School today. Thank you to their staff for welcoming them to your school. Dragon Brew is part of our PHS Transitions program which helps students learn fundamentals of business including marketing, customer service, and quality production. Students also learn important life skills such as teamwork and work ethic. It's been very rewarding watching our students grow in confidence through this hands-on learning project.
If you are interested in having Dragon Brew visit your organization please contact Jenny Allen-Price at PHS @ 405-442-0099 or email allenj@purcellps.org

PHS Staff recently hosted their annual Christmas party thanks to our Climate & Culture team led by Melissa Feroli. We appreciate their efforts to provide our staff a fun evening of fellowship. A big thanks to Pinot's Palette owner Jon Corea (and PHS art teacher) for hosting.
Purcell High School students recently visited Dibble for the OASC student exchange, hosted by Dibble Stuco. We all boarded the Stuco Express and spent the day connecting with other student leaders through team-building activities. One of the highlights was decorating Christmas stockings for a local nursing home, which added a festive and meaningful touch to the visit. It was a fantastic experience that strengthened our bonds and fostered a sense of community.
