As winter approaches, we like to make sure that everyone has multiple ways to receive alerts from Page County Public Schools.
Here are some recommendations:
1) Make sure your contact information in PowerSchool is updated through the Parent Portal. The information in PowerSchool is what is used to send emails, texts, and phone calls.
https://pagecounty.powerschool.com/public/home.html
2) Download the Page County Public Schools App. https://aptg.co/RvlDHS
Follow the instructions to download. Customize it to receive messages from the division and your specific schools. (This is a great alternative to have if you continuously have difficulty receiving text messages).
You should prepare to receive messages multiple ways when notifications are sent out from the division--Text, Email, Push Notification, and/or Audio. Making sure you have all of these methods set up will ensure that you do not miss any important information.
In addition, important information/alerts are also posted to social media and to the LIVE feed on the Page County Public Schools website. https://www.pagecounty.k12.va.us/live-feed
Families may claim up to four (4) complimentary tickets, available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. ALL tickets must be claimed by Thursday, November 12 at 11:59PM.
Please use the link to claim your tickets.

There will be NO SCHOOL for students on Monday, November 2, 2026, for a Teacher Work Day and Parent/Teacher Conferences. Conferences run from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please check with individual schools to make appointments with teachers and to find out when teachers will be breaking for lunch.
There is also NO SCHOOL on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, as this is Election Day and some schools are used as voting locations. Offices WILL be OPEN during regular hours.
School will resume normally on Wednesday, November 4, 2026.
I am thrilled to share some exciting news! Our School Performance Framework results have been released, and Page County Middle School has been identified by the state as a Distinguished School! This is the highest category a school can earn. In addition, we have officially exited our federal identification for needing improvement, a label that has been associated with PCMS for nearly a decade.
To top it off, PCMS ranked fourth among the top five schools in the state for gains in our School Performance Framework score! This is an incredible accomplishment and a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and commitment of our entire school community.
As the principal of PCMS, I could not be more proud. I want to take a moment to celebrate this milestone and sincerely thank the incredible teachers who work tirelessly for our students, the students who continue to grow and rise to challenges, and every staff member who plays a role in making our school a better place. To our parents, guardians, and community members, thank you for your continued support, partnership, and belief in our students.
It truly takes a village, and I am so honored to be part of Panther Nation! This accomplishment belongs to all of us. It represents the collective effort of a community that cares deeply about its students and is committed to helping them succeed.
While we are taking time to celebrate how far we have come, we also recognize that the work continues. The bar has been raised, and we must continue to build on this momentum. This year, we will keep putting our best foot forward, challenging our students to give their best effort, supporting our teachers and staff, and working together to ensure every student has the opportunity to grow and succeed. We also encourage our parents and guardians to continue reinforcing the importance of effort, attendance, responsibility, and learning at home.
Thank you again for being part of this journey and for everything you do to support PCMS. We have so much to be proud of, and I look forward to seeing what we accomplish together next!
Congratulations, Panther Nation! We are rising together!
With Panther Pride,
Principal Hitt
Page County Middle School
