We will also be hosting our CTE Expo at this time!
Students & parents can tour classrooms, labs, and shops. Learn about electives, clubs, NCAA eligibility requirements, and career opportunities.
Eighth-grade families are encouraged to attend to get information about scheduling,
programs of study, and helping your child succeed in high school.
See you Monday!
Mrs. Brown was only 12 years old when Prince Edward County Schools decided to shut down instead of integrate. She is now 79 years old and has entered back into the classroom as a Longwood University student. She encouraged our students to use the brains in their heads and feet in their shoes to go places and do big things.
We also enjoyed special music from the MR Jones Memorial Singers and a special poem, "Mother to Son," shared by the senior of the month, Jeremiah Lee.
