Stephen Delaney likes reading newspapers on microfilm at the library. He enjoys the old political cartoons and Cynthia Howell/George Bentley stories covering past Arkansas K-12 education issues. Jon Kennedy is his favorite cartoonist but George Fisher is a close second.
One thing he's learned during the pandemic is just how crucial public education is for EVERYONE including those without school-age children. We all need healthy, safe, and functional public schools!
Thank you, Stephen, for your dedication to PCSSD!

Many PCSSD teachers and staff got the COVID-19 vaccine this week (as will many more in the coming weeks). The excitement is evident knowing that normal days aren't far away. But it's still important to still wear your masks and physical distance! #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
