Education

Students in the Powhatan area are academically challenged by excellent public and private educational systems. The Powhatan County School System is dedicated to providing quality education through the use of their facilities, implementation of technology and their experienced educators.

There are two elementary schools, a middle school, a junior high and a new high school that all work to prepare the community’s children for productive futures. The high school recently added a Junior ROTC and cosmetology program for interested high school students. They also offer to qualified seniors the opportunity to earn the equivalent of a year’s worth of college credits while completing their 12th grade year through The College Connection Academy.

Blessed Sacrament Huguenot is a Catholic college-preparatory school, grades PS-12, dedicated to educating the whole child spiritually, academically, socially and physically. The diverse school family and the traditional structured environment foster communication among students, faculty, home and administration. The school understands the importance of small class size, which allows the faculty to nurture and develop each student’s full God-given potential. Their mission is to graduate students who are goal-oriented, socially and morally responsible, and equipped with the knowledge and skills to be successful in higher education and in life.
