PCS has been a unique school from the very beginning.

The Santa Cruz County Office of Education, in partnership with the Local Childcare Planning Council and First 5 Santa Cruz County, is developing a model plan for a voluntary preschool system that would create opportunity for every 4-year-old in Santa Cruz County. This vision is based on the understanding that quality preschool programs are the foundation for success in school and, therefore, in life.

Now that I've made this decision, I'll look for ways to stay involved in education.

I've accomplished most of the things I set out to do. It just seems like the right time to make a transition.

Josh was mortified in the beginning, but now he's completely hooked. I want to sit down, and I want to laugh. Nothing works better for me than watching somebody slip on a banana peel.

I resent his comments and don't agree with him being here. I was told from the beginning that if I had anything important to report, I should present it to the entire board. And this was of public record and very important.
