Quick Updates
9th grade Orientation will occur on the first day of school, August 18th, 2025.
10th-12th grade students will report for their first day of school on Tuesday, August 19th, 2025.
Chromebook Update
Our new Chromebooks arrived early! As a result we won't be distributing the old Chromebooks. The new Chromebooks will be distributed during the school day this Wednesday and Thursday. Students must turn in their old Chromebooks and pay their $25 Chromebook fee to receive a device.
Online students who need a Chromebook immediately will have the opportunity to come down to the library and get one on their first day of school.
A Message from our Counselors
Students will get a new copy of their schedule on the first day of school in 1st block. Counselors have been working to balance upper level classes and addressing schedule concerns, which may have impacted some of the schedules students picked up at Open House. We will try to notify anyone that was affected but these changes will also be viewable on PowerSchool by the end of the day on Monday. Please be sure to follow the new yellow schedule.
The ONLY changes counselors are making when school starts are scheduling errors or late arrival/early release requests. Students should email their counselor, IF there is a scheduling error. Please remember that students do not always get their first choice elective but they should have gotten one of their alternates.
Powhatan Strong: Family Connection Series
Powhatan County Public Schools Student Services Department welcomes you to our monthly Virtual Coffee Chats titled Powhatan Strong: Family Connection Series. Each month, Student Services will present a different topic with strategies to support your students from home, policies and procedures at the division and school levels, and opportunities to ask questions of our Student Services Department members and guest panelists. The first session will be this Thursday, August 21, 2025 at 10 AM. During this session, we will explore the topic of student attendance and how our schools and community partners support our students with regular attendance at school.
