About Papillion La-Vista High School

I graduated from Morningside College with a B.S. in Biology Education and taught science for 12 years - first at Bishop Heelan Catholic High School in Sioux City, IA and then here at Papillion-La Vista High.  I earned my M.S. in Educational Administration from UNO and my Educational Specialist degree from Wayne State.  I have been the 11th grade principal at PLHS for the past 9 years.  In addition to discipline, I am in charge of educational technology, coordinate the professional development program and our Professional Learning Teams.  Our students and staff make this a very special place that I am proud to say is the best high school in the state.  Go Monarchs!

Graduate Safe

Graduate Safe, the most amazing graduation party run solely by parents, needs YOUR help!! We are looking for parents of students in ALL GRADES who are interesting in helping to put together this event for PLHS grads. Our first meeting will be held at the end of October (let’s get Homecoming out of the way first right?!?!). If you are even a little bit intrigued, email Vern Davis-Showell (vdavis@paplv.org) and come meet with us on October 24th at 6:00 in the PLHS Library.
