School Story:
Poplarville High School was my 6th high school in 3 years, so I was nervous about attending yet another new school. My very 1st day at PHS was during homecoming week and I was sent immediately to the gym where a pep rally was in progress. The bleachers were full, the gym floor was crowded with students, band and cheerleaders circled around some CRAZY GUY in camo doing that Russian kicking thing! He just kept going and going. Of course it turned out to be Tony Poole and over the years he has become one of my dearest and closest friends. I absolutely fell in love with PHS, the choir (I just loved), the wonderful student body and Poplarville. Everyone was so welcoming and inviting making for a great high school experience.
