Alongside peers from Staunton and Augusta County, students are serving on house committees, presenting their own bills, and experiencing the legislative process firsthand.
A powerful opportunity to build leadership, critical thinking, and civic engagement. 👏

It takes a village, and we’re grateful for ours! 🌟
Thank you to Augusta Health for supporting the LU Exergame System—truly a game-changer for our students.
Westwood second graders participated in an 8-week learn-to-swim program at the Waynesboro Family YMCA . While some students built life-saving skills in the pool, others stayed active in the gym using the LU system. 🏊♂️✨
This partnership is about more than swimming—it’s about building confidence, safety, and lifelong healthy habits.
Good evening,
As previously announced, Monday, April 20, 2026, will now be a regular school day, and our Staff Workday will be moved to Tuesday, April 21, 2026. This change is necessary due to the special election being held across the Commonwealth of Virginia, as several of our school locations serve as polling places.
Thank you for your understanding and flexibility as we adjust our schedule to accommodate voters.

Wenonah’s Wax Museum! 🕰️✨
Students brought history to life through an engaging, interdisciplinary experience—researching historical figures, writing speeches, and stepping into character as “living statues.”
From powerful voices of the past to influential changemakers, our students didn’t just learn history… they became it. 👏

Throwback Thursday – Westwood Hills Elementary

The event was designed to encourage positive connections between families, students, and teachers.
Thank you to the Waynesboro Fire Department and Waynesboro Police Department, who spent time with students whose caregivers were unable to attend.
Events like this help strengthen the partnerships that support student success.

A big thank you to Jason and Davaughn from Who’s Next Barber Shop for visiting Wenonah Elementary to provide spring haircuts for students. Veronica Bell also joined in to help with braiding.
Acts of care like this help students feel confident and supported, and we are grateful for community members who take the time to invest in our schools.
We’re also excited to welcome Who’s Next Barber Shop to the Waynesboro neighborhood when their new shop opens later this spring!

On March 3, Waynesboro Public Schools staff participated in a division-wide Professional Development Day — our own Amazing Learning Race! Educators spent the day exploring new strategies, collaborating with colleagues, and engaging in sessions designed to strengthen teaching and learning across our schools.
From planning their learning “routes” to sharing ideas and insights, staff members embraced the journey toward continued growth for the benefit of our students.
