Bus Driver Safety Awareness Week spotlight 🚌 Lillard Brockette has been driving for the Mills Middle, MUSHS, and Landmark for 15 years. He says he became a bus driver for the income but stayed because of his love for the kids and the job.
🌊 When he’s not driving, Lillard enjoys going to the beach and relaxing.
🗣 “Some days it’s tough since we are so short on drivers, but seeing the students’ smiles and the gratitude of some make it all worth it,” Lillard said.
Want to make a difference like these incredible drivers? 👉 Apply to be a bus driver at PCSSD: https://pcssd.schoolspring.com/

👨‍⚖️ Nearly 100 students from every PCSSD high school took an oath this morning to serve in Teen Court! 👩‍⚖️

⚖️ Teen Court empowers students to act as judges, jurors, and advocates, using restorative justice to help their peers learn from mistakes and make better choices.

🏫 PCSSD is proud to be the only district in Arkansas with a school-based Teen Court model, where students earn class credit while gaining real-world experience in justice and leadership.

📊 Studies show that teens who participate in Teen Court are less likely to reoffend compared to those in the traditional court system—proof that student leadership makes a difference! #PCSSDproud #TeenCourt #ServeAll

Our city parks are so valuable, and our MUSH students got a chance to be part of the Boyle Park Beautification with the Adopt-A-Park Program recently!

They earned community service hours when they spent four hours cleaning up litter, inspecting park equipment and utilities, and working on reports containing issues around the park. Students also came up with possible solutions to submit to the City of Little Rock targeting the improvement of this vital public space.

MUSHS students recently had the opportunity to earn community service hours by helping at the Arkansas Food Bank. Our students packed over 1,700 pounds of rice and over 5,100 pounds of food total. This work provided 4,300 meals for seniors citizens in need in our area. We are so thankful for this partnership with AFB and our students to help our community!
