Prentiss County School District – Champions of Our Own Success

Prentiss County School District Seniors visit Northeast

Prentiss County Seniors had a wonderful time at Northeast NOW exploring the campus and learning about all the programs and opportunities Northeast Mississippi Community College has to offer. Thank you to all the faculty and staff at Northeast Mississippi Community College for hosting this event!

Attention Parents & Guardians!

PCSD has partnered with BrightBytes, an educational research organization, in order to learn more about our students’ school and home technology use for learning. We are reaching out to ask you to take part in the Technology & Learning questionnaire this week. Your participation is essential to help us form a more complete picture of technology use for learning. You only need to complete the survey one time. You may have received a link from your child's school as well. Just complete one of those surveys. Please know that all of your responses will remain anonymous to protect your privacy. Thank you for your help!

Emergency Broadband Benefit

The Emergency Broadband Benefit Program is a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program that provides a temporary discount on monthly broadband bills for qualifying low-income households. If your household is eligible, you can receive:

Up to a $50/month discount on your broadband service and associated equipment rentals
Up to a $75/month discount if your household is on qualifying Tribal lands
A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer (with a co-payment of more than $10 but less than $50)

Only one monthly service discount and one device discount is allowed per household. To receive the connected device discount, consumers need to enroll in the EBB Program with a participating provider that offers connected devices (not all service providers offer device discounts). The service provider will provide the discount to the consumer.

The program will end when the fund runs out of money, or six months after the Department of Health and Human Services declares an end to the COVID-19 health emergency, whichever is sooner.
