PCSSD is currently experiencing an internet outage that covers almost every school in the District. One of the main fiber lines was cut and caused the outage. AT&T has been notified and will fix the issue. However, we do not have an estimated duration for the outage other than that it will be "an extensive repair." We appreciate your patience.
Congratulations go to senior Raven Buenger, the 3rd place Novice IPDA debater in Arkansas and 5th place Diamond Division Competitor, senior Ysabelle Calahi. Another unbelievable finish for Sylvan Hills High School Debate.
