Pana Unit 8 is currently in the process of adopting a new motto that is reflective of the mission statement: Working in partnership, PCUSD 8, students, parents and community members will each do his or her part to ensure learning and success. Because we value your input and because we want you involved, we would greatly appreciate your vote for a new motto for the district. To vote on line, on the lower left side you will find the mottos. Click on the motto you think best reflects our new mission statement and then click vote. You will then be able to see the online voting percentages. Please note that you can only vote once. You may also obtain a ballot and vote at any of the schools in the district.
