Polk County Public Schools Announces Commitment Day 2025; Seeks Community Support

​Polk County Public Schools is proud to announce its annual Commitment Day! Each high school will host its own 2025 Commitment Day event to celebrate their graduating seniors who have committed to their future, and they need your help to make this day special.  Commitment Day events will be held at each high school during the last two weeks in April. They will recognize students who plan to attend any college, university, or training program and our students who will join the military or the workforce. 
 
Former First Lady Michelle Obama started celebrating College Signing Day at the White House.  PCPS is thrilled to continue its local tradition by recognizing all seniors committing to their future. Celebrating Polk County seniors' success means more than a party; they know our community is proud of their hard work, invested in their futures, and excited to see what they do next.
 
PCPS would appreciate it if you would donate to a high school of your choice for Commitment Day.  There are 7 high schools in the Lakeland area, and the goal is to provide each school with numerous items for their students. Below are Amazon Wish Lists for the high schools throughout the district.  All items will be shipped directly to the schools—no need for delivery on your part. If you cannot donate through the wish lists and would like to donate other items, please reach out to one of the Community Liaisons in your area.
