Improvements and Upgrades Thanks to Your Tax Dollars

While students and families were home over the summer, our District facility teams were hard at work giving many of our schools a little "glow up!"

From a modernized school campus, to floors and roofs, these projects are examples of YOUR PENNY at work.

Thank you, Palm Beach County, for supporting our half-penny, which makes these projects possible. Promises made, promises kept!

Watch this video to see some of the improvements and upgrades.

Thank you, Officer Dupuis, for pouring your heart into your work every day!

The Path to Graduation Starts Now

September is Attendance Awareness Month

Students' journey toward graduation is unfolding each day. Their attendance matters, and missing just two days of school a month can jeopardize their potential to graduate.

During September for Attendance Awareness Month, the District is reminding families of the importance of consistent school attendance.

Watch the first part in our series of Attendance Awareness videos.
