Military Families

Welcome to Poquoson City Public Schools! We are honored to work with our military families and extend our thanks to you for your dedication and sacrifice to our country.  PCPS is committed to providing the necessary resources and support that our military-connected students and their families may need. With just over 17% of our student population being military-connected, we are fortunate to have partnerships with organizations such as the Department of Defense Educational Activity (DoDEA). PCPS has been awarded multiple grants to support literacy, STEM instruction, Project Based Learning and Tiered Systems of Support through DoDEA and we are grateful for their support of our students and community.

Information on this webpage is intended to support our military families as they transition to PCPS. If you have additional questions or need more information, please contact the receiving school directly.
