Seniors, PLEASE, make every attempt to attend this event if you plan on going to college this year after graduation. Even if you do not think you will be going, file your FAFSA just in case you change your mind at the last minute. The deadline to file your FAFSA for priority if February 1st, 2020.
Parents, if you can make it to this event, it would help your student out. You will either need to bring your 2018 tax returns with you, or be very knowledgeable of how you filed our taxes in order to utilize the shortcut IRS Tax Link.
If you attended the last FAFSA Night in October, 2019, thank you for participating, but more importantly, your student thanks you!!
Puxico family, we need your help again. We are looking for the valedictorians and salutatorians from each class all the way back to 1950. If you have any of this information please send it to Teresa at the high school office or email tbrotherton@puxico.k12.mo.us.
The JV boys came up a bit short at Holcomb last night, but Varsity brought home a win! The boys represented our school well, and the cheerleaders kept the orange and black motivated! Come to our next contest at home on Friday, January 11 at 6:00 against Clarkton.
This week the Lady Indians will finish the Delta tournament with away contest.
We wish both teams and our cheerleaders good luck!
