8/12/25: Senior portraits will be taken at PHS on Monday, August 25. Please see the flyer for complete details.

Mrs. Kelly’s English 2 classes gathered evidence and worked to make inferences and build an argument in a “Solving a Mystery” Activity last week! They were given a folder with “evidence” including instagram posts, bank statements, text messages, and more, and had to build a solid case to solve the crime!

In Mrs. Kelly’s English 4 class, students have been learning about The Hero’s Journey, and last week they put their knowledge to the text in the form of a partner activity!

Students watched an episode of “Bluey” titled “Curry Quest,” and then were given strips of paper with the events of the episode. They had to put the events in the correct category for The Hero’s Journey!

8/8/25: During the summer, several PHS students immersed themselves in career camp activities on the University of Mississippi and Mississippi State University campuses. Students had the opportunity to stay on the campuses, take part in college lectures, and be involved in hands-on activities in the fields of pharmacy, culinary science, engineering, veterinary medicine and architecture.
Thank you to the Toyota Wellspring Education Fund for providing these amazing opportunities for our students!

8/7/25: Visual Arts 1 students painted records, CDs, and cassette tapes this week, along with rocks that they hid around campus for other students to find.

The Pontotoc High School graduation ceremony will be Friday, May 16, 2025, at 6:00pm, at the Tommy Morton Football Field.
