January is School Board Appreciation Month and we asked our board members to share a little about themselves. 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! #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
