PCSD Human Resources staff have been spreading some cheer across Putnam, Clay, Flagler and Volusia Counties by delivering signs to our Employee of the Year nominees. (Although there were a couple of roads that seemed a bit troublesome, nothing was going to stop this mission!) Many of the signs were delivered while the employees were at work but there were a few times they were caught in action. What an amazing group of honorees!

This afternoon, at Interlachen Jr.-Sr. High, Sidney Williams was surprised by family and school staff as her Take Stock in Family mentor announced she was 1 of 12 finalist in the State of Florida for the Leaders 4 Life Fellowship and Scholarship.
Every student in Take Stock in Children receives a mentor to help them reach high school graduation and they work with a College Success Coach to help make sure they are on track and prepared for transition to post-secondary education. Upon graduation and successful completion of TSIC, students receive a 60-credit hour Florida PrePaid Scholarship.
Sidney was awarded an Apple Macbook for being one of the finalists. Being selected for the Leaders 4 Life Fellowship would provide up to $10,000 a year while attending a 4-year public University in Florida (Up to $40,000) in addition to the Florida PrePaid Scholarship she has already earned.
Sidney takes all of her classes at Santa Fe College. She attends IJSHS for TSIC meetings and for extra curricular activities. She is a very smart and accomplished young lady and we are so PROUD of her!
