Pittsburg Public School

Pittsburg Public School is a high school located in Pittsburg, Oklahoma. There are roughly 200 students K-12.

The sports include basketball and baseball/softball. Basketball is a major sport in the high school, with many fans and usually crowded stadiums during home games. The fans tend to take the sport seriously, so much that some violence has been known to occur.

There are no band, dance, photography, art, or video editing classes available to the students. The classes mostly consist of main subjects, such as Algebra I and II, Biology, Chemistry, History, and other required classes for passing high school. French used to be available to the students, but the teacher of that field has since left. All foreign languages must now be taken online. Driver's Ed is offered at the school for free, which takes up a class period for the students.

Pittsburg has a semester based year. The classes are usually 45 minutes long, and the students have 7 classes a day. Lunch is strictly on-campus, and is also 45 minutes long.

Every grade in elementary (K-6) acts out a play around Christmas time. One memorable play was done in the theme of Disney by the 5th grade students, in which the students dressed in mouse hats, as dalmatians and Cruella de Vil from "101 Dalmatians", as Mary Poppins, as Siamese cats from "Lady and the Tramp", and many other Disney based characters. The students then sang a song and acted out the character they were dressed as. This is done every year with different themes per grade, but it is not certain how long this tradition has been going on.
