Amazon recently reached out to PCSD proposing a large donation of COVID PPE.
We were blown away by what showed up! They sent two semi trailers (pictured) completely full of hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes, and cleaners for our district. The donated items will be distributed to each of our schools! Thank you Amazon for this extremely generous donation!

What an amazing accomplishment! We are so PROUD that three of our Putnam County students are the FIRST IN THE STATE, at the highschool level, to pass the NC3 Introduction to Mechatronics certification exam earning them each a certification.
"We would like to congratulate the following Palatka High School students for passing the NC3 Introduction to Mechatronics certification exam. They are the first students to obtain this certification at the high school level for the State of Florida.
These students have been in the Advanced Manufacturing program with Mr. Knutsen since the program launched in 2017-2018, and are currently in the Advanced Manufacturing 4 and Capstone class.

Today we are honoring Sandra Libby Weaver from Mellon Elementary School.
When asked what her favorite thing about being a principal was she responded: "CHILDREN! Children are amazing little humans. I love to "see the world through their eyes." You never know what they might say or do, but it is always such a treat to get a front row seat to their growth and development. They are funny,smart, unpredictable, and completely honest. If there is anything better than the innocence and excitement of a child, God surely has it waiting for us in Heaven."
