Dr. Kenneth Harris II

My heart is so full ♥️ - This weekend I hosted parent leaders, principals, & community school coordinators from each of the 19 schools in District 7. We continued our discussions on the power of parent partnership, ways to intentionally engage with the school house and how to move PGCPS forward together. A special shoutout to the District 7 PCAC (Parent and Community Advisory Council) member Ms. Delores Millhouse (@dmillhouse ) for her vision and presentation. Along with Dr. Sheila Jackson from the PGCPS Department of Family and Community Partnerships for sharing resources with our parents. And thank you to our District 6 & District 7 County Council members @walakb & @krystaloriadha for sharing areas of partnership between the county council, PGCPS, and other community partners! • • • • • #pgcps #education #parenting #partnership #community #pto #educators #schools #student

Re-Elect Dr. Kenneth Harris for District 7 on the Prince George County Board of Education! Please Share, Like, & Comment 🗳️ For more information about the campaign see the link in my bio! Dear Prince George’s County, For those of you I have not met! My name is Dr. Kenneth Harris and I have the privilege to serve as your District 7 Board of Education member for Prince George’s County Public Schools. As a graduate of the Science and Tech Program at Eleanor Roosevelt, I’ve experienced both the challenges and triumphs of PGCPS firsthand. As a student and resident living here my entire life, I understand the impact our school system has on every scholar reaching their future goals. And my personal educational journey through this system, into an industry I love, is just one testament to that fact.  Now as a father of two future scholars I am even more invested in what it takes to enhance the educational experience for every student under our care. And not just them, but also the experiences of our educators and staff members that make these schools run everyday. I humbly ask for your support as I seek re-election to once again represent District 7. In Service, Kenny #pgcps #education #pg #election #school #students #parents #educator #vote #graduation

So, I gave our scholars a crash course on what it’s like to build a $10 billion satellite - except we used recycled @amazonprime boxes! 🛰️🚀 Thank You to all of our amazing 5th, 6th, & 7th grade scholars for participating in The Aviation and Engineering Exploration Day! Here our groups learned about Satellite Design, Sustainable Energy Transfer, & Aviation Simulations. Thank you to my colleague Madeline LaSalle-Frazier, my mentee Sophia Villar, Dr. Felicia Martin Latief, & Mr. Frazier for your partnership and collaboration in this event. Representation matters! Across the US, African Americans make up > 7% of engineers. As an Aerospace Engineer, I am passionate about STEAM & will continue to collaborate and develop programs with @pgcps to give our students every opportunity moving forward.
