Today, Preston County Schools join communities across the nation in recognizing Constitution Day, commemorating the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787. In our public schools, this day provides an opportunity for students to learn about the document that established the framework of our government, shaped the rights and responsibilities of citizens, and continues to guide our democracy. Constitution Day is more than a look back at history—it is an opportunity to encourage civic understanding, thoughtful participation, and an appreciation for the principles that help shape our nation. Throughout Constitution Week, September 17–23, we are proud to help our students understand the importance of our Constitution and their role in our communities and our country. This year, all 8th graders will receive a pocket Constitution thanks to the 917 Society (https://www.917society.org/all-pocket-constitution-requests) and spearheaded by Tracy Friend.
October Lunch/Breakfast Menus
The first week of October, a survey will go out for students to fill out to continue to shape the menus for the remainder of the school year.
