As we all begin the journey of this new and exciting school year, as principal, I am truly honored to welcome you all to Port Barre High School. In our ever changing world of education, our amazing faculty, staff, and administration are committed to working hard and providing a school environment that is both engaging and challenging educationally for all. We also encourage our students to be well rounded. We do this by providing many extracurricular activities for them to get involved in beyond their studies.

As a school family, we all have to work together for that much needed and wanted success to occur. We encourage parental and community involvement and have an open door policy. By working together, we will provide our students/children a smooth pathway into society that they can and will be successful in. We know we have the best students and the best school, so let’s all keep our expectations high of each other. With these high expectations, we all have that goal to work for. PBHS expects the best and will accept nothing but the best each individual has to offer. We will hold everyone who is a stakeholder here accountable.

I hope that at the end of each day, everyone can be proud to call PBHS their school. I also hope and pray we all have a safe, positive, and productive year ahead.
