My grandmother retired from PCPS and as a child I always heard her talk about how it felt like a village. It's been quite the blessing to know that the compassion, support, and village mentality are still the keynotes of Powhatan County Public Schools. My team cares about me, my family, and the things that matter to me. They've got my back, even when it's tough, share the load when it gets heavy, and celebrate my successes alongside me.  I can't imagine working somewhere that didn't have the camaraderie, support, compassion, drive, and love that Powhatan County Schools does.
