Having clean schools is an essential part of making sure our students have a safe place to learn. Today is National Custodian Day, so we want to give a huge shout out to all of the men and women who work for HES, some of whom are shown here, and take care of our buildings both day and night. #wearepcps #teampowhatan

Students in Ms. Burks’ AP Psychology class at Powhatan High School work on a collaborative project with the PHS Library that focuses on action potential and neuron transmission. The students, who are mostly juniors and seniors, constructed 3-D displays and materials and then used stop motion technology to create videos explaining neural transmission. #wearepcps #teampowhatan #elevateeducatorsva

The Lunch Buddies Mentoring Program has been in place in Powhatan County Public Schools for the last 10 years. The goal of the program is to help foster strong relationships among our students and the positive adult role models in the community. Whether at any of our 3 elementary schools or our middle school, you would meet with a student once a week and ultimately act as another advocate for them. It can be anything from academic support to conversation, playing games, making crafts, and so much more. The program is planned to begin the first week of October and will last until mid-May, when SOL testing begins in our upper grade levels. If you are interested in participating as a mentor for the Lunch Buddies Program, we would be happy to have you! Please apply using the QR code or reach out to lunchbuddies@powhatan.k12.va.us for any questions.

Text that reads: Missing School=Missing out. Below are some key reasons why it is important children attend school:  to learn, to have fun, to make new friends, to experience new things, to achieve, to develop new skills, to build confidence and self esteem.  Good attendance at school is important to allow a child or young person to fulfill their potential.
Over the next few months, Powhatan County Public Schools will be spotlighting the awesome employees who joined our staff this year. Please join us in welcoming them to the PCPS family. #wearepcps #teampowhatan
