We accept cash, check, or money order. Checks and money orders must be made payable to Lifetouch. We cannot accept checks or money orders made out to Philip O’Brien Elementary.

Device Password Assistance
If you are experiencing an issue where you receive a message that your password has expired on a Polk County Public School device, please following the instructions below to resolve the issue.
1. Take the device to a PCPS school site (The BusWiFi locations will not work, it must be a school site).
2. Get close enough to a building that you can connect to the PCPS-Secure network (This should occur automatically).
3. With the device powered on, REBOOT the device using the button located in the bottom right hand corner, shutting the device down or putting the device to sleep will not work.
4. Once the device reboots, it should clear the change password message and you will be able to login. If this does not work, repeat the reboot step until it does.
Please call the school at (863) 499-2950 if you have any questions. We are open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM during the summer.
Summer Learning
Summer learning materials have arrived and are ready for pick up. We have materials for students who just completed Kindergarten through fourth grade as well as our new incoming Kindergarteners.

Please call the school for a time to stop by Monday through Thursday from 8 AM to 5 PM for pick up.
