💙💛 Today, three outstanding PHS students proudly represented our school as panelists at MSDE’s Teacher of Promise Institute! They responded to questions from college seniors preparing to enter the teaching profession. One of our outstanding teachers, Ms. Lunsford, was a member of the new teacher panel where she shared her thoughts around being a first year teacher. All of their insights were mature, enlightening, and incredibly well-received. 👏

Tonight at Salisbury University's RPDS celebration, Dr. Bergonia's intern, Jack Blakelock presented her with an Outstanding Mentor Teacher Award. Well-deserved, Dr. Bergonia. 💙💛

Since today is Principal Appreciation Day, Dr. Rayne deserves two posts about how special she is to Pocomoke High School. This little token of appreciation certainly isn't enough of a thank you for all you do, but you are so appreciated. 💙💛
