WISE, Va. — Wise County Public Schools is celebrating another achievement: all 11 schools included in the Virginia Department of Education’s 2026–2027 division report are Fully Accredited and earned a Distinguished rating, the highest performance category under Virginia’s School Performance and Support Framework (SPSF).

🏆 Happy National Coaches Day! 🏆

Today, we celebrate the coaches who do so much more than teach the game. They inspire, encourage, challenge, mentor, and believe in their athletes—helping shape not only better players, but better people. ❤️

Whether they coach at the varsity, junior varsity, middle school, or rec league level, their impact can last a lifetime.

🥇 Share this post and tag a coach who has made a positive impact in your life! Let’s give them the recognition they deserve and remind them just how much their dedication means.

Thank you to all the coaches who give their time, energy, and heart to our athletes and our communities!
