Our school was identified for Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (ATSI) status based on the performance of our Special Education group. This group did not meet the state's performance targets, necessitating additional, targeted support to address their specific learning needs and promote equitable academic outcomes for all students.

We remain fully committed to meeting the needs of each and every student here at Pittsville Elementary and Middle School. Through intentional collaboration, data-driven instruction, and ongoing professional development, we will continue to work towards closing achievement gaps, strengthening supports, and ensuring that every student has the opportunity to succeed.  Additional information can be found by clicking this link.

Elementary orchestra traveled to Parkside High School for their orchestra's Children's Concert, entitled Once Upon a Symphony. They got to watch someone who played the instrument they are learning, learn about how it is to play in an orchestra, hear from soloist and graduate of WCPS, Chris Sajadi, and even meet some Disney princesses along the way. It was also a special treat to take a picture with 4 members of the PHS orchestra who started their orchestra journey at Pittsville themselves!
