Social studies teachers! Did you know we have 140+ lessons with @iCivics? 💻 With elections around the corner, help your students dive into the history, mechanics, and current events of voting. Use case studies and real-world examples to apply civics knowledge in their own communities. 📜💬 🔗 bit.ly/481k50k #ElectionDay #Election2024 #Vote

Last weekend Kathleen High junior Darby Hancock became the Class 3A girls golf state champion. It's a pretty big deal. As far as we can tell, there have only been two previous girls golf champs in PCPS history. Congratulations Darby! facebook.com/polkcountypubli… 🏌️‍♀️🏆

The students are small but the brains are big at the Elementary Science Showcase! Every year, PCPS fourth- and fifth-grade students come together at the Showcase to present their science projects and discuss findings with peers from other schools: polkschoolsfl.com/newsreleas…
