Kindness starts with each of us. When we listen, include, forgive, show respect, solve problems peacefully, and lift one another up, we create schools where everyone feels valued and belongs.
Different ideas. Same team. One school community. 🤝
A kinder, more united Preston County Schools starts with US!

Today, October 6th, we’re celebrating the incredible instructional coaches who work behind the scenes to make a BIG impact across our schools! 🌟
Our instructional coaches are master teachers, peer mentors, and collaborative partners who support educators, strengthen teaching practices, encourage professional growth, and ultimately help improve outcomes for our students. 🍎📖
Their work may not always happen in the spotlight, but their impact is felt in classrooms every day. Thank you to our instructional coaches for guiding, supporting, empowering, and inspiring our educators and students!
💙💛 We appreciate YOU and all you do for Preston County Schools! 💛💙
