Upcoming Events & News

• If your student will require medication at school for the 26/27 school year, please plan to meet with the school nurse during staff work week of August 17-21st

• NO Paper Interims NEXT Year (26-27) …PCPS has decided to NOT print paper copies of interims for the 26-27 school year. Instead families will just log in to PowerSchool to see how their kiddo(s) are doing at the “halfway” mark of each quarter. Reminders will still be sent to families letting them know we are at the “halfway point”. More to come next school year…stay tuned!

Reflect on This School Year

• I have TRULY LOVED being your child’s principal! All of you have made my 1st year as principal AND 1st year in Powhatan so remarkable. Now, as the year is QUICKLY approaching I would like to provide you with an opportunity for me to GROW professionally as your principal and to ensure we are moving forward in the right direction as a school. Below is a link to a short survey I would like you to fill out with your HONEST feedback (NO emails will be collected, but there is a place for your leave your information should you like to discuss things further).
