Pitt County Schools

During Bullying Prevention Month, we’re reminded that creating a positive school environment is something we all have a part in. A kind word. Including someone. Speaking up. Looking out for one another.

Small actions can make a big difference!

Yesterday, we celebrated Cortisha Skinner, Career Explorations and STEM teacher, as PCS 2026 Beginning Teacher of the Year!
We’re proud to celebrate her and the impact she is already making in the classroom.
