Today, we honor the indispensable role of substitute teachers in our education system. PCS has some amazing substitutes, who step-up and fill-in, sometimes on short notice, and do so as if they were made to be the teachers in those very classrooms they care for in a teacher's absence. Today, and every day, we can't thank you enough for helping to ensure our students' educations continue and thrive. Thank you PCS subs!!!

Students and families were treated to read-alouds from special guests, including Sir Chester, crafts, a book walk, bingo, a glow room, and an evening filled with many fun learning opportunities. Our special thanks to the literacy team and all the county volunteers who helped to put on this great family event. Best of all, each and every student left the event with a Scholastic Family Book Kit and additional books.
