MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT Greetings from Floyd County Public Schools:  We are excited about what the 2019‐2020 school year has in store for our students,  staff, and community. Thanks to the efforts of our staff, our School Board, and  community partnerships we have made great strides in meeting the needs of our  children in the first two years of our six‐year vision. Details of our progress are outlined  on our website ( www.floyd.k12.va.us ) under “About Us” then “Budget & Six Year  Vision”.  

We are strengthening our partnerships with Virginia Tech, Radford University, New River  Community College (NRCC) and our own area businesses to explore internship and  degree program opportunities. We are expanding the experiences for our students and  involving high engagement project centered activities to develop problem solving and  creativity.  

We have continued our efforts to make every household in Floyd County literacy rich by  providing a resource back pack for any 3, 4, or 5 year old resident of Floyd County.  Please call our school board office (540‐745‐9400) if you know of a child or family in  need of this resource, who we haven’t already visited. Please read to your children often,  the benefits are endless. Reading strategies are provided in this handbook.  

The most beneficial resources for our children are our staff and the families of our  students. Our staff continue to create opportunities for growth, allowing for each  person’s potential to be revealed and their dreams a possibility. We do this in part  by  conveying to our students that they are safe, cared for, and we all want them to be  successful. 

Please feel free to contact myself or any of our leadership team at anytime. We wish you  all a memorable and successful school year.  Warmest Regards,   John F. Wheeler, Ed.D.
