New Grading Policy Leaves Students Frustrated

The new grading policy is among the many new policies being implemented in the 2026-2027 school year. The new grading policy contains rules regarding what teachers can assign and how the students’ grades will be weighted. The original grading policy was changed in 2020 with the superintendent at the time, and the Office of Instruction and Strategic Planning worked on the grading policy and grading handbook. The handbook at the time did not outline the policies very clearly, and schools were implementing them themselves.

Local students explore teaching as Virginia vacancies decline

FISHERSVILLE — Walking into a classroom full of students who are considering being teachers delighted Ryan Barber. The Waynesboro assistant superintendent was part of a group that answered questions from students in the Teachers for Tomorrow programs at Valley Career and Technical Center and the Shenandoah Valley Governor's School in Fishersville at the end of October. It was the second straight year the panel of superintendents and central office was hosted by the programs, giving students a chance to ask questions of those in leadership positions in Augusta County, Staunton and Waynesboro. Barber believes programs like Teachers for Tomorrow can plant seeds that hopefully grow in the years to come, eventually producing more and more teachers in area classrooms. Part of Barber's job is recruiting and hiring staff for Waynesboro Public Schools. Finding teachers is never easy, although according to the The Virginia Department of Education the numbers are improving. Since 2023, teacher vacancies across Virginia have dropped by almost 36% . In Region 5, which includes the Shenandoah Valley, the teacher vacancy rate is 1.4%, lower than the state rate of 2.5%. Those are good signs and programs like Teachers for Tomorrow can help identify students who are interested

MCPS schools face closures as enrollment rates decline

“Too many schools, too few students,” a problem that MCPS is more than well aware of. For the first time in over 40 years, student enrollment in Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is declining, leading the Board of Education (BOE) to determine which schools should be shut down and consolidated. Due to declining birth rates and changes in demographics across the county, more schools are experiencing low attendance rates and more vacant space. The conversation around closing and consolidating schools has been thoughtfully looked at over the past couple of months, although MCPS has recently brought attention to the public.
