Alumni Spotlight at Putnam County High School! 🦅
We were excited to welcome back PCHS Class of 2008 alumna Thomaesa B. Bailey to Putnam County High School last week! Ms. Bailey is an accomplished attorney, social worker, political strategist, and public policy expert with over 12 years of experience in politics. Her work has led to successful changes in the law at every level of government—from the city level in Detroit, to the state level here in Georgia, and even at the federal level in Washington, D.C.
During her visit, Ms. Bailey participated in a meet‑and‑greet with our students, where she shared her personal journey and encouraged them to believe that their zip code does not define their future. Students were highly engaged and asked thoughtful questions as they learned firsthand what’s possible through hard work, determination, and purpose.
She concluded her visit with a tour of our CTAE classrooms and labs, seeing how PCHS is preparing students for life after high school and future career success. Thank you, Ms. Bailey, for coming back to inspire the next generation of Putnam County leaders! 💙

Yesterday, Putnam County High School students participating in the Fox Gives All‑Access Pass program had the incredible opportunity to see what truly makes the historic Fox Theatre in Atlanta come alive during their Fox Theatre Shadowing Day!
Students met and spoke with 28 Fox Theatre professionals, learning firsthand what their jobs involve and how each role contributes to the success of a Fox performance. From ticket sales and marketing, to culinary and concessions, to backstage production and on‑stage operations, our students were able to experience it all! To see all the pictures from yesterday's All-Access Shadowing Day at the Fox, please visit the PCCSS district Facebook page and stay tuned for a Putnam Pieces Videocast episode about it soon!
The Fox Gives All‑Access Pass offers high school students hands‑on exposure to the wide range of careers that bring live entertainment to life. Through workshops, mentorships, and behind‑the‑scenes access, participants connect directly with industry experts across tech, design, performance, management, and more. It’s real‑world learning, real career exploration, and real inspiration—showing students that a career in the arts isn’t just one role, but an entire world of possibilities.

Putnam County High School’s Service Leadership class had the incredible opportunity to visit W&A Engineering yesterday for one of their most special annual trips.
Our students heard from engineers, interns, surveyors, project managers, HR, the CFO, and even shared lunch with CEO/Owner Jon Williams. As a leading multi-disciplinary engineering and infrastructure firm serving communities across the Southeast, W&A is known not only for the scale and excellence of its work, but also for its strong investment in nonprofit partnerships, employee volunteerism, and community outreach.
We are deeply grateful they continue to open their doors and pour into our students through this elite annual experience.
