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!!!
Just a reminder that schools are closed all next week and the BOE offices are closed on the 27th and 28th. We want to wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. PCS is thankful for our staff, students and teachers.
All PHS busses will be departing 15 minutes late today. PHS busses will be 15 minutes late on their routes coming home today.

An excellent opportunity for a great meal, and a chance to give back this Thanksgiving season
This morning at approximately 11:17 AM Preston High School and Central Preston Middle School were placed on a brief precautionary hold due to a reported issue at a nearby location. The hold was lifted following notification from law enforcement that the concern had been addressed.

Parents of Seniors, the deadline to order your Announcements, Senior products, and Cap & Gown at the lower cost is December 1st. Any order not placed before December 1st will incur increased pricing, and the announcement will not be the foil leaf announcement on fine paper. Jostens will go to print in middle December, so make sure to have your order placed online at www.jostens.com. Or, you can call the local Jostens office at 681-235-3138 to place your order over the phone. You can order anytime right up to graduation, but you will fall into the late order program and lose the in-school group pricing if you order after the deadline.
