Spotlight on Staff - Board Meeting Highlights - 05/06/2026

At the recent Board of Education meeting, St. Mary’s County Public Schools was proud to recognize the dedication and impact of our teachers, pupil personnel workers (PPWs), and school nurses.

These individuals support our students in countless ways each day — inside classrooms, throughout schools, and across our community. Their compassion, professionalism, and commitment help create safe, supportive, and successful learning environments for all students.

We are grateful for everything they do and fortunate to have such outstanding professionals serving the students and families of St. Mary’s County.
