Military Families
Welcome Military Families to Puckett High School!
We are very excited to welcome you to the Wolfpack here at Puckett. We are incredibly thankful for our military families and are here to support you and your child in enrolling. Helping military families make their home in Puckett is important to our school for many reasons but most importantly, for our military students. We hope to be a resource to your family as you join our school and community!
Please contact our office should you have any questions.
