Page County Public Schools would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our hard-working, dedicated teachers. Since we are not able to be in school this year, we'd like to encourage you and your child to participate in our own little "Thank You" recognition for our division. Sometime this week, have your child write a note or make a card/poster, take a picture and post it in the comments. So that everyone sees the participation, please submit the pictures in the comments on the Page County Public Schools Facebook Page for all of us to enjoy. Please share.

Attention All Winter and Spring Athletes: Due to the Covid 19 virus many of our school issued practice and/or game uniforms have not been returned. We feel we are at a point where we can start working on our athletic inventories and request all uniforms that have not already been returned be turned in. The uniform collection dates and times are as follows: Tuesday, 5/12/20, Wednesday, 5/13/20, and Thursday, 5/14/20. Uniforms may be returned to the Page and Luray High School commons areas on these dates with the collections starting at 8:30am and ending at 11:30am each of the three days. Coach Knight with softball will be at PCHS on Thursday, 5/14/20, and would prefer softball uniforms be returned that day, if possible. If not, please bring them in on Tuesday or Wednesday. Please contact Mr. Ehlers or Mr. Cubbage if you have any questions. Please share.
It is Teacher Appreciation Week and we love our teachers! If you see a teacher today, thank them please!

If ever there was a group that deserved recognition, especially during this time, it's our cafeteria and Nutritional Services staff. To Jennie Jeffries, her assistant Kate Comer, and to all of PCPS Nutritional Services staff (and to the volunteers who have assisted), we applaud you for your hard work everyday, and especially since the end of March when your dedication to the students and community of Page County was never more obvious. YOU are the true Lunch Heroes! Today, we celebrate you!
