Call it the Patriot Act—the Rebels celebrated Constitution Day in a big way! 🇺🇸 Thanks to Delegate Israel O’Quinn for sharing his experience in government with our seniors, and to our SCA members for distributing tea to students and staff (don’t worry, none of it went to the harbor☕️)!
Last year students worked with the city of Glade Spring to design a commemorative mural celebrating the 150th anniversary of the town. This fall, Ms. Smith's Art 4 students Sammi B., Summer B., Nichole B., and Addy Y. painted the mural. These girls worked incredibly hard to get the mural finished and the hard work shows! (Not pictured Addy Yarber)
We have been informed that MED Flight is planning to land their helicopter at the PH football field this afternoon. This is NOT related to a PHHS student or a PHHS employee.
