static $PATH_TO_USER = $server . '/users';
I'm getting a syntax error. If I remove the static, it accepts it, though.
It's not a big deal to type the whole thing out, but I'm not sure why this isn't working in the first place

Static variable
Static variables may be declared as seen in the examples above. Trying to assign values to these variables which are the result of expressions will cause a parse error.
via the PHP Manual.
Static property
Like any other PHP static variable, static properties may only be initialized using a literal or constant; expressions are not allowed.
