Preston County Schools had another great staff opening session on Wednesday the 13th. No matter the challenges and obstacles, our staff are prepared to welcome back our students and give them our best each and every day. We'd like to thank our sponsors, because without them, we wouldn't be able to put on such a successful event and training. A special thank you to Karen Cagle, our guest speaker from the Center for Model Schools, Instruction and Leadership. Karen has been, and always will be a big part of our PCS family, and it's through the work with her and her group that has continued to move PCS forward and do what we do for our kids day in and out. We may be biased, but we have the best and most dedicated staff, and we hope that you see in PCS what we strive for each and every day. Thanks again to our sponsors, our incredible staff, and let's get this thing started.
Thank you -
