We Are Nottoway — Committed to Excellence! 🌟
We’ve all seen it — someone going the extra mile for a student, lending a hand to a teammate, or showing a small act of kindness that makes a big difference. Now’s your chance to shine a light on those moments!
Let’s celebrate the incredible efforts of our NCPS Family who show kindness, dedication, and a true commitment to excellence every single day.
Here’s How It Works:
✅ Share your story — it’s quick and easy!
✅ Someone will be featured on our social media as part of our Commitment to Excellence Spotlight.
✅ Your name stays anonymous — but your kind words will inspire others and highlight the amazing people who make NCPS special.
Let’s take pride in the extraordinary things happening across Nottoway County Public Schools and give a shout-out to the people who make this a wonderful place to learn, work, and grow.

It's hard to believe the first quarter has come to an end and report cards have been shared with families. We believe strongly in the power of partnership and open communication—your child’s academic progress is key to their success, and we encourage you to stay actively involved in their learning.
Please note that schools will be closed for students on Monday, November 3rd, and Tuesday, November 4th. Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held on Monday, November 3rd, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM. We encourage all families to take this opportunity to meet with teachers and discuss student progress and goals for the second quarter.
Our commitment remains focused on high expectations and accountability for all students. Please remind your child of our continued expectations:
- Cell phones should not be used during instructional time—bell to bell.
- Behavior should promote learning and a positive classroom environment.
- Dress code should be followed daily—no hats, hoods, earbuds, midriffs, or other non-compliant attire should be worn at school.
- Reminder: Students are not permitted to wear costumes to school on Friday, October 31st.
We appreciate your partnership and ongoing support in helping us create a safe, respectful, and engaging environment for all students. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s school.
Thank you for sharing your child with us each day!
We Are Nottoway—Committed to Excellence.
