 The red, white and blue colors of the Poinciana High School Eagles were running true on Friday, January 27th, 2006 . That?s when Poplarville High School received a generous gift of $10,000, and a visit from a representative of Poinciana High School who had had some previous experience with hurricanes to share. Arriving on his own time and travelling by air using his own money was Mr. Jeff Arnott, one of four Assistant Principals at Poinciana High School, located in suburban Kissimmee, Florida .
Mr. Arnott, who has been with Poinciana High School for just the past two years, presented the check to Poplarville High School Principal Mr. Carl Merritt and Assistant Principal Mr. Gary Wayne Malley. With this very generous check, Mr. Arnott also brought the hopes and good wishes of the big-hearted students of Poinciana, all of whom sent warm greetings in light of their appreciation and understanding of Poplarville High School?s post-hurricane re-building and recovery efforts.
