Eagle Families,
I want to make you aware that there was a law enforcement presence at Prince Edward County High School this afternoon in response to an isolated student-related incident. At no time was the school placed on lockdown. Out of an abundance of caution, we briefly held dismissal for approximately five minutes. We are grateful for the prompt response and support of local law enforcement, and we appreciate everyoneโ€™s patience and cooperation as the situation was addressed quickly and safely. Thank you for your continued support. -Dr. Chip Jones, PECPS Superintendent

Help is available for Virginia students and families who are filling out the recently available Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) announced a financial aid help desk and a new series of free webinars to support completion of the application.

Students can text โ€œHelloโ€ to 434-478-4003 and receive answers to their financial aid questions from an expert within 24 business hours. The service is available at no cost to Virginia students and is part of SCHEVโ€™s efforts to ensure that no student leaves financial aid funding on the table.

In addition to text-based support, SCHEV has partnered with uAspire, a national non-profit focused on college affordability, to host a six-part webinar series for students and families. Each one-hour session offers guidance on the following financial aid topics:

FAFSA Completion
Financial Aid for Current College Students
Scholarship Basics and Tips
