Scam Alert: Fake WVSSAC Facebook Account (PCS will always post if we're streaming an event and on what platforms)

The WVSSAC has been made aware of fake social media (Facebook) accounts claiming to represent the WVSSAC and sharing links to live streams of high school football games. These links are not official and may be attempts to steal personal information or compromise devices.

Please exercise caution when engaging with posts or accounts claiming to represent the WVSSAC. (Or any entity claiming to stream a PCS event that hasn't been put on previously)

The official WVSSAC Facebook page has over 32,000 followers. We encourage you to verify the page details before clicking on links or sharing posts. Any other accounts claiming to be the WVSSAC, or tagging schools in suspicious posts, should be reported to Facebook immediately.

Just a reminder that tomorrow, Friday, October 24th, there will be no school for students and staff reports for professional learning. No School for students tomorrow.

PHS Biology classes and the HSTA club would like to thank Robert Sypolt and Bernie and Linda Coyle for talking to our students about the American Chestnut and taking us on a tour of the Waddell Orchard located on PHS campus. This was a very educational topic, and we enjoyed learning about the chestnut and other flora growing on our campus.

We also want to thank the American Chestnut Foundation for recording a video at the orchard that we all watched to learn more about the American Chestnut blight and what is happening at our orchard to help the trees survive. The video features our very own Robert Sypolt, along with Mark Double and Amy Metheny.
