WPDS-LD is the low-power Educational-access television channel owned and operated by the school board of Pinellas County, Florida, broadcasting educational programming for schoolchildren, plus board meetings and classic movies.
In addition to UHF channel 14 (which can be tuned in from most parts of Pinellas County), WPDS can be seen in Pinellas County on cable channel 14 on WOW! systems, and digital channel 614 on Bright House.
The station originally had its start in the early-1980s as a cable TV-only channel. In 1990, it opened a low-powered UHF channel on channel 14, to reach viewers without cable service. Initially as W14AW, it changed its calls to WPDS-LP in 1996. The station flash-cut to digital in late 2009 as WPDS-LD, using the same transmitter location and wattage.
While the station is owned by "Pinellas County Schools", the station's calls are named after "Pinellas District Schools", which is the name used on public school buses in Pinellas County. All public school buses in Florida are named similarly.
The station's studios and transmitters are located at the School Board headquarters in downtown Largo.
