Pulaski County Public Schools would like to publicly thank all of those who have served our country in the Armed Forces. No matter which branch or job, we appreciate the sacrifices you all made in the name of defending our freedoms that we enjoy each day. We also recognize all of those PCPS Alumni who have served or are currently serving. Today, throughout the day, we will also be posting photos of PCPS employees who have served. We hope to find out who all of our Veterans are eventually so that we may recognize them appropriately, but as of this moment we have found 11 PCPS employees who are also Veterans. We will begin posting those photos within the hour. Happy Veterans Day!

The PCHS Fine Arts Department will be presenting a Veteran's Day Concert on Thursday, November 11. Make plans now to attend.

Latsch named Teacher of the Month Pulaski County Public School and Pulaski Elementary are proud to honor Crystal Latsch as Teacher of the Month. Mrs. Latsch is currently teaching second grade at PES. She has been teaching for 13 years, with five of those being at Pulaski Elementary. Mrs. Latsch is known to be an exemplary teacher in times of hardship. She serves on various committees and goes above and beyond her normal duties. She is always willing to help out in areas of need and does so with the kindest heart. She is “looping” this year, volunteering to move up a grade with her students. You will not find a more dedicated teacher in PCPS than Mrs. Latsch. Pulaski Elementary is grateful for her constant positive attitude and dedication. She and her husband, Wayne, have two children, Abby and Zack. Her hobbies include spending time with family, church, scrapbooking, and puzzles of any kind. Congratulations to our teacher of the month, Crystal Lastch.

Secrist named Employee of the Month Pulaski County Public Schools and Pulaski Elementary are proud to announce that Kim Secrist has been selected as the November Employee of the Month. Mrs. Secrist has been at Pulaski Elementary for 12 years. Last year she was promoted to Cafeteria Manager. Her husband is Rick, and she has two daughters, Kassidy and Keslyn. In her spare time, she dedicates every minute she has to her girls and basketball. Mrs. Secrist is usually one of the first people to arrive at the school each morning. She communicates with faculty and staff on a daily basis. The school never knows when the cafeteria is understaffed because she manages the cafeteria so efficiently. She adapts well to constant change, and always has a positive attitude. She interacts with everyone in the building in a friendly manner, and sees that each student’s needs are met. What is also equally important, is that she helps make the principal happy with his dietary needs. We are thankful for her impressive work ethic, and we are lucky to have her in our building. Congratulations to our employee of the month. Kim Secrist.
