I am entering my Senior year at Panhandle High School. My classmates have been my friends since kindergarten. We are a small tight knit community. Our town is very supportive of our academic, Band and athletic teams. Our community young and old travels hours to games to fill the stands to support our teams. I recently qualified and ran at the State Track meet in Austin and numerous alumni came to watch my teammates and myself compete. I broke a 38 year record and the former record holder messaged me on how proud she was that it was me that broke her record.Our teachers are supporting and approachable and truly want us to excel. Panhandle High School my home my community my support system my family . One day someone is going to beat my record and I want them to feel the warmth that I felt from the community. These are the traditions and values our School instills in us . PHD the best !!
