Preston High School was fortunate to have a generous donor collaborate with our Communities In Schools (CIS) program to recognize several deserving students. Communities In Schools is a national, school-based support program designed to keep students in school, engaged, and on track to graduate by removing barriers that interfere with learning. Congratulations to these fine young individuals who were recognized by their peers and staff members for their efforts, growth, and commitment to success. Keep up the excellent work.
