Phelps High School is not just a school, it's a place where students and staff come together, at Phelps High School they help our small town so much more than what most people think, Phelps High School is a place of encouragement and a place where students feel safe, and the Hornet Pride at Phelps is amazing, for our small school everyone from students to staff show their pride at every game and at pep rally's, overall Phelps High School is a fantastic place for children to not only learn for now, but for their future.
