Good morning, Churchland Middle School families –

Please be advised Churchland Middle School was evacuated after a classroom computer experienced an electrical malfunction, which set off the fire alarm. The fire department reported immediately and evaluated the building. The school was given the all clear to return, and students and staff are back to normal operations. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the school’s main office at 757-686-2512.

Thank you.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month💜

We asked our Truckers to share what they wish someone who feels like they don’t matter could hear. Sometimes, a few words of kindness, a reminder, or simply knowing someone cares can make a bigger difference than we realize.

Check in. Speak up. Remind someone they matter. Your words can make a difference.
