Ponchatoula High School

OUR MISSION

United We Learn and Excel

The philosophy of Ponchatoula High School is based on the premise that the major function of the school is to aid each student in reaching his or her full potential as a worthy member of a democratic society. Recognizing that each human being is unique in his interests and abilities, the faculty and staff strive to provide growth in all areas of human development. Thus, curricular and co-curricular activities are directed toward the academic, moral, cultural, social and physical aspects of students.
