Mark your calendars for this great family fun event! Please note there are multiple dates and locations for the production.

As we did last year, we are asking parents to take the time to log into their Parent Portal Accounts and complete the ONE question survey regarding Internet Access. https://pagecounty.powerschool.com/public/home.html If you need additional assistance logging into the Parent Portal, please refer to these step-by-step instructions. https://5il.co/1fnbs Once you have logged into your Parent Portal, please go down to Forms on the left hand side, select Forms and then locate the Internet Access Survey and answer the ONE question. After you have completed the survey, we ask that you also take the time to update any contact information that may have changed for your child(ren)--Emergency contact Information, Parent Contact Information, Medical Information, etc. This should be done AT LEAST once every year to help us keep our records as up-to-date as possible. Thank you for your time and participation in this endeavor.

Kindness notes are an easy way to practice kindness. Kindness notes provide a concrete way to practice kindness through handwritten notes, electronic communication, or drawing pictures to show gratitude to others. Kindness notes can positively impact someone’s day. People will never forget how you made them feel.

To continue celebrating our Technology staff, here are just a few pictures of great lessons supported by our technology team. From finding exciting activities to do with students to enhance classroom learning, to making sure our equipment is operating properly and our network is top shape, we wouldn't be able to offer our students the experiences they get without each of them. Thank you for all you do everyday to support our students and our schools. We think we have the BEST IT Professionals!

We love our Technology Team. Today, we celebrate them!! Thank you for all that you do for our students, staff and administration.

A compliment is an expression of regard, admiration, praise, or respect. It feels great to receive a compliment. Research shows getting a sincere compliment gives us a positive boost and in turn also makes the giver and receiver happy. We know it can feel awkward sometimes to give a compliment and/or to receive one, but the more practice you get, the more natural it will feel. Such examples could include, “You’re like sunshine on a rainy day”, “You are beautiful on the inside and outside”, “You are making a difference” or You’re an awesome friend."

Page County Public Schools would like to give a sincere thank you to all of our School Resource Officers-- February 15, 2024, is School Resource Officer (SRO) Appreciation Day in the Commonwealth of Virginia. School Resource Officer Appreciation Day not only honors those who serve our school communities as certified law enforcement officers, but also commemorates their contribution as role models and law-related educators.
