The Polk County Sheriff's Office held a swearing-in ceremony today for our newest group of school safety guardians. Superintendent Heid and PCPS are delighted to officially welcome these brave men and women to our schools.

As always, thank you to PCSO for being our partner for this vital program. Your training and expertise have been invaluable to keep our schools safe.

Checking in at Fort Meade Middle-Senior, home of the ... Mulching Miners?

Assistant Principal Jason Dent says the football team is "showing that small town pride by helping lay new mulch along the front of the school after workouts."

"Miner Pride goes beyond just the football field."

Alyssa Stanek overloaded our social media with cut

Alyssa Stanek overloaded our social media with cuteness when she visited our school bus depot a couple weeks ago (see the previous photos here on our IG account).

A quick recap: Alyssa, 2, is "obsessed" with school buses. Before she enters preschool this year, her mom, Meghan, reached out to us to see if there was any way that Alyssa could check out one of our buses for a photo shoot.

PCPS' Transportation staff was happy to oblige, inviting the Staneks to our bus depot off State Road 60, where Alyssa got to run wild and go for a ride with driver Margie Yzaguirre.

Meghan brought a photographer (@kiwiandbri) and promised to share the pictures when they were ready. Here are a few of our favorites.

"Having these pictures her first year of school means so much ... You guys did such a nice thing ... I know we’ll certainly never forget it," Meghan said.

"As a side note, Alyssa still has the bus Margie gave her, still plays with it and still talks about her!"

*Have you ever considered becoming a bus driver? We'd love to have you join our team for 2021-22!
