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.

Mrs. Arnett’s sixth graders at Powhatan Middle School started off math class with a game on Gimkit called The Floor is Lava. Gimkit is a classroom game-show platform where students compete by answering questions on their Chromebooks. Instead of earning points, students earn virtual currency, which they can "invest" during the game to boost their score. #wearepcps #teampowhatan

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.

I am so excited to be joining the Powhatan team. I came from Chesterfield County Public Schools. I love spending time with my family, which consists of my husband, my two sons and our Golden Retriever. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone better. Have a wonderful day. One of my favorite holidays is St. Patrick’s Day. In my free time, I love to walk, go to the beach, travel, and learn how to do new things.
All three PCPS elementary schools held Back to School nights on Sept. 19, welcoming families to walk the halls and visit the classrooms where their children are educated. Thank you PCPS families for coming out for a visit, and thank you to our amazing staff and PTO members for working so hard to make these events possible. #wearepcps #teampowhatan
