We are Falcons
We believe that the lessons learned outside of the classroom are just as important as the lessons learned inside the classroom. Because of this, we strive to create opportunities for our students to develop their talents, become leaders and define their sense of self. This is why our Falcon pride flies high.
At SPPCS we provide many options for our students to get involved beyond the classroom. Our Athletic Department is led by athletic director, Coach Carrie Phelps and supported by the SPPCS Athletic Boosters. Our scholastic clubs and teams are each individually sponsored by a SPPCS faculty Member.
SPPCS is a member of the Cahokia Conference, which also includes Columbia, Dupo, Freeburg, Millstadt, New Athens, Red Bud, Smithton, Valmeyer and Waterloo Jr. High.
