What do teachers do during a Professional Development Day? Last Friday, teachers attended sessions on relevant topics and spent time working in their classrooms. These opportunities provide time for teachers to receive required training, subject-specific updates, and platform demonstrations.

Did you know that missing just two days a month adds up to nearly a full month of lost learning each year? Regular attendance helps students stay on track, build good habits, and succeed in school and beyond. When students miss school, they miss valuable lessons, class discussions, and opportunities to connect with teachers and friends. Families can help by setting morning routines, scheduling appointments outside school hours, and staying in touch with teachers. If your child is struggling with attendance, weโre here to help! Contact your school for support and resources. Letโs work together to make every school day count! #AttendanceMattersVA #EveryDayCounts #SOAR

Students at Prince Edward County High School have the opportunity each year to choose extracurricular organizations to join. These groups meet regularly throughout the school year.

Congratulations to the newly elected officersโPresident Ella Estes, Vice President Oliver Euteneuer, Secretary Honey Patel, and Board of Directors Najadah Anderson and Alice Yang! #ServiceAboveSelf
