Menu Change:
Due to the anticipated weather forecast, the Thanksgiving School Meal originally on the menu for this Thursday the 21st, will now be served on Wednesday the 20th just in case there's any kind of schedule change. We want to ensure that all of our students have the opportunity to enjoy a nice Thanksgiving Meal prior to break.
At approx. 1:45 (current time), Friday, November 15th, 2024, an event, unknown to students, kicked-off that should result in the school going into lockdown. This is a planned DRILL in cooperation with school admin, county admin, safety/security director, and the law enforcement, to better prepare our students and staff in the event of an actual emergency. If you receive communication from your student during this time, or hear or see chatter on social media, again THIS IS ONLY A DRILL. We hope that this training and continued training for our students will better prepare them and our staff in the event of an actual emergency.

Today's Board of Education meeting was full of recognitions. Preston County Schools is always happy when given the opportunity to showcase and recognize our amazing students and student athletes. The PCBOE had the opportunity to recognize the PHS Skills USA participants who represented us so great, our always incredible FFA students, and the never disappointing PHS Cross Country Teams. We're so proud of all of these students.
Multiple groups coordinated efforts to recognize our local veterans. Our students spoke of the branches. their sacrifices and skills needed. Another student led everyone in a moment of silence for our fallen soldiers. Veterans were provided breakfasts from the ProStart program and flowers from the Floriculture class. Thank you to all who participated today, we are glad you were able to join us!
Friday, November 8, from 6-9 pm, Mr. Cool set up two of his own personal telescopes and one owned by PHS. These were not your typical home telescopes; they were able to filter and magnify so that students could see the shadows from the rings on Saturn. We could see the color defined in Jupiter as well as 4 of the moons rotating around it. He introduced the Pleaides cluster and other characteristics in the night sky. Thank you, Mr. Cool, for giving this opportunity to our students.
The Preston High Theatre Department presents its fall play, The Play That Goes Wrong! This Olivier Award-winning comedy is a hilarious hybrid of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes. Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), this will be a night that you will never forget!

Menu Change for Tuesday, 11-19. Due to an unavailability issue from distribution, the 19th will no longer be a BBQ Rib sandwich, but will be replaced with a bbq pulled pork sandwich. All other accompaniments are the same.
Today isn't just another day off from school or work. Preston County Schools will always honor and remember and would like to thank all our Veterans. We thank those who served, and those who are still serving. We are Preston Proud and Strong, because you've sacrificed so we can be. Thank you.
Big Buck Contest is open to students and the public!
Sir Chester says, "Don't forget to buy your 2024-2025 Yearbook!"
Sir Chester wishes he could play in the game tonight, but he is fine with watching the football team play against Philip-Barbour tonight from the stands. Game is at Philip-Barbour High School at 7:00pm. Be there, or be square. Go, Knights!
