Patriot Day.
September 11th is recognized each year as Patriot Day to remember the lives lost at the World Trade Center, on Flight 93, and at the Pentagon. Patriot Day also honors the first responders, service members, and civil servants who were integral in rescue and recovery efforts - many of whom made the supreme sacrifice as a result. Many Virginia schools commemorate Patriot Day by flying the Freedom Flag, which is recognized as the Commonwealth’s official 9/11 flag of remembrance. The Freedom Flag Foundation encourages schools to conduct flag raising ceremonies that include the recitation of the 10 symbolic elements of the Freedom Flag.
All schools in the Commonwealth are encouraged to designate time during the week of September 11th for reflection and commemoration. There are resources available from the United States Department of Education and the Library of Congress that captures Americans during trying times and serves as a historical resource for future generations.

About 25 minutes ago, Luray High School went into a soft lockdown, which means that students are kept in class and instruction continues and no one can enter or exit the building. This was necessary to address a student situation. Everyone is safe and the lockdown will be lifted in just a few minutes.
Thank you for your continued support of PCPS.

The next two groups PCPS would like to recognize are our maintenance crew and our groundskeepers. Our maintenance guys work hard every day with repairs and maintaining our buildings. They are always just a phone call away when we need help. Often times they are already in our buildings working long before we ever arrive for the day. There's not much these guys can't do. Thanks for all your hard work!
Our groundskeeper : Jackie with his summer assistants Chris Mercer (LES) and Brian Benson (Shenandoah) worked hard this summer helping to maintain the lawns of all of our schools. Their help is much appreciated by all.
To both groups, we would like to extend our gratitude for your dedication and loyalty to Page County Public Schools. You ARE appreciated for all you do.
