Ms. Carcana works with our students at Portlock Primary School! She has been a school counselor for five years and loves making an impact in the lives of the Tigers she serves! 🐯 We hope you have a great National School Counseling Week! 🎉 #NSCW24
Shout out to our fabulous school counselors, Mrs. Halleck and Ms. Carcana. They always make our Tiny Tigers their top priority. ❤️🐯
Congratulations to Sophia! Due to her amazing attendance the first semester of school, she won the drawing for a new bike.
Keep coming to school Tiny Tigers and you could win the next bike at the end of the year.
Thank you to Horace Mann for donating the bikes as part of our attendance incentive.
🎉 Join us in saluting the service of over 800 school board members in Virginia for School Board Appreciation Month! The 2024 theme — The Heart of Education: Our School Board — acknowledges that the school board is at the heart of the education system, guiding it with kindness and care. The month-long observance is an opportunity to build a stronger understanding of the crucial role school boards assume in a constitutional republic. School boards voluntarily tackle the enormous job of governing public school divisions, while preserving the core of our democratic values. #CPSCelebrates
