    The Pulaski County High School Red Cross Club would like to formally invite all friends of PCHS to donate blood at the PCHS Gym on Friday, March 16, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. The Red Cross will provide drinks, snacks, and pizza for donors. Most importantly, a large donor turnout will result in college scholarship opportunities for our student body.  Please see redcrossblood.org for more information. 
    February Attendance Challenges  February is our most challenging month for student attendance.  In an effort to positively impact our February attendance rates each department has been challenged to monitor and encourage 
    student attendance by class.  Friendly competitions among classes in the same block/period/department/content area/etc. will be encouraged all month.  Please ask your teacher(s) about the competitions in your class.

    Parents, guardians, and community stakeholders are asked to please take a few minutes to complete this short survey.
    We, at Pulaski County Schools, are very interested in your feedback to help us serve your students and strengthen our school system. This will be open until Feb. 28. Thank you for your time.
