First Year Teacher

Back-to-School
Supply Drive Competition
“PGCPS first year teachers are paid the least and typically come out of
pocket to provide school supplies in their classrooms.
Let’s change this!
I am challenging all PGCPS community stakeholders and partners to join
in lending a helping hand by donating school supplies
to support our 700 first year teachers.”
