Suffolk Public Schools
Recognizing Excellence
Suffolk students take a trip to Egypt ... Two Suffolk
schools were among a limited number around the world
piloting Google Expeditions, a new virtual reality platform
offering immersive learning experiences to teachers and
students. Suffolk schools were part of the first wave of
schools piloting the
new learning tool in
2016. Wearing Google
Cardboard 3-D viewers
which hold cell phones,
teachers guided
students through 360degree photo spheres
for a virtual tour of
Egypt, among other destinations. Teachers used tablets
to point out areas of interest on the tour. Like a “real
world” field trip, teachers paced the experience and kept
students learning and engaged.
Congratulations to 27 students from Suffolk Public
Schools! The College Board recently announced
its 2016 Advanced Placement (AP) Awards to 20
recent graduates and seven current seniors for their
outstanding achievement on their Advanced Placement
(AP) national exams. Since 2013, the number of Suffolk
Public Schools’ students earning AP Scholar awards has
increased by 33 percent.
Two Suffolk Teachers rise to the top ... Lakeland High
School teacher India Meissel was elected vice president
of National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS ) and is
in line to become NCSS President in 2018-2019. Meissel currently serves on the board of the Virginia Council
for Social Studies, whose mission is to provide leadership, service, and support for social studies educators.
Oakland Elementary School’s physical education teacher Anne McCoy was named the Statewide Recreation
Professional of the Year by the Virginia Association
for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance
(VAHPERD) for demonstrating excellence in her field.
John Yeates Middle School has been selected as one
of 20 state-wide demonstration sites for the Virginia
Department of Education’s Co-Teaching Initiative. As a
demonstration site, the co-teaching partners will provide
a model of best practices in a co-taught classroom.
They will receive training and individualized technical
assistance and support that represents more than
$10,000 in high-quality professional development,
resources and teacher stipends.
School Selected for PBS
KIDS Code-to-Learn AfterSchool Camp ... What’s
better than an afternoon
snack in front of the
television? For 20 students
at Mack Benn, Jr. Elementary
School, it was creating their
own stories with their favorite
PBS KIDS characters during Code-to-Learn After-School
Camp. These first-, second- and third-graders served as
“test pilots” for a new mobile app under development by
the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). “ScratchJr” is
an introductory computer programming language that
enables young children to create their own interactive
stories and games.
Wolf Trap Institute for Early Childhood STEM Learning
through the Arts provided a week-long school residency
program at Booker T. Washington Elementary School.
A visiting educator worked side-by-side with preschool
teachers to lead a variety of integrated STEM+arts activities in the classroom. Based on classic children’s storybooks, students enjoyed acting like different characters,
speaking the parts in different voices, and using their
imaginations to act out the scenes in the story. The lessons reinforced basic math and science concepts, such as
patterns, direction, size, shapes, speed, and sequences.
As the children sang songs, acted out motions, or created
art, they were learning to solve problems, work in teams,
and understand different points of view.
Virginia’s First Lady
kicked off the state’s
Teacher Appreciation
Week campaign at a
Suffolk elementary school.
The Virginia Lottery
teamed up with Virginia
Tourism Corporation and
the Virginia PTA in support
of National Teacher Appreciation Week. The goal? To
thank as many Virginia teachers as possible during a
week which celebrates those who help shape the future of
our children.
Five King’s Fork High School students competed in
the 2016 Model NATO challenge at Virginia Wesleyan
College. The role-playing exercise simulated real world
issues faced by today’s North Atlantic Treaty (NATO)
Alliance. A total of 28 Hampton Roads students served
as “student diplomats” representing each NATO member
nation. The Suffolk students represented the United
7 States, Croatia, Hungary, Estonia, and Slovenia.

Legislative Regulations
Code of Virginia, 1950
A county school board is vested with the use and control of all school funds, whether derived
from state appropriations, local taxation, or other sources, and has exclusive authority to
expend the funds set apart by law for school purposes.
15.2-2503. Time for Preparation and Approval of Budget; Contents. All officers and heads of
departments, offices, divisions, boards, commissions, and agencies of every locality shall, on or
before the first day of April of each year, prepare and submit to the governing body an estimate
of the amount of money needed during the ensuing fiscal year for his department, office,
division, board, commission or agency. If such person does not submit an estimate in accordance
with this section, the clerk of the governing body or other designated person or persons shall
prepare and submit an estimate for that department, office, division, board, commission or
agency.
The governing body shall prepare and approve a budget for informative and fiscal planning
purposes only, containing a complete itemized and classified plan of all contemplated
expenditures and all estimated revenues and borrowings for the locality for the ensuing fiscal
year. The governing body shall approve the budget and fix a tax rate for the budget year no later
than the date on which the fiscal year begins. The governing body shall annually publish the
approved budget on the locality's website, if any, or shall otherwise make the approved budget
available in hard copy as needed to citizens for inspection.
15.2-2504. What budget is to show. Opposite each item of the contemplated expenditures the
budget shall show in separate parallel columns the aggregate amount appropriated during the
preceding fiscal year, the amount expended during that year, the aggregate amount
appropriated and expected to be appropriated during the current fiscal year, and the increases or
decreases in the contemplated expenditures for the ensuing year as compared with the
aggregate amount appropriated or expected to be appropriated for the current year. This budget
shall be accompanied by:
1. A statement of the contemplated revenue and disbursements, liabilities, reserves and
surplus or deficit of the locality as of the date of the preparation of the budget; and
2. An itemized and complete financial balance sheet for the locality at the close of the
last preceding fiscal year.
9
Code of Virginia, 1950 continued,
15.2-2506. Publication and notice; public hearing; adjournment; moneys not to be paid out
until appropriated. A brief synopsis of the budget which, except in the case of the school division
budget, shall be for informative and fiscal planning purposes only, shall be published once in a
newspaper having general circulation in the locality affected, and notice given of one or more
public hearings, at least seven days prior to the date set for hearing, at which any citizen of the
locality shall have the right to attend and state his views thereon. Any locality not having a
newspaper of general circulation may in lieu of the foregoing notice provide for notice by written
or printed handbills, posted at such places as it may direct.
The hearing shall be held at least seven days prior to the approval of the budget as prescribed in
§ 15.2-2503. With respect to the school division budget, which shall include the estimated
required local match, such hearing shall be held at least seven days prior to the approval of that
budget as prescribed in § 22.1-93. The governing body may adjourn such hearing from time to
time. The fact of such notice and hearing shall be entered of record in the minute book. In no
event, including school division budgets, shall such preparation, publication and approval be
deemed to be an appropriation. No money shall be paid out or become available to be paid out
for any contemplated expenditure unless and until there has first been made an annual,
semiannual, quarterly or monthly appropriation for such contemplated expenditure by the
governing body, except funds appropriated in a county having adopted the county executive
form of government, outstanding grants may be carried over for one year without being reappropriated.
22.1-88. Of What School Funds To Consist. The funds available to the school board of a school
division for the establishment, support and maintenance of the public schools in the school
division shall consist of state funds appropriated for public school purposes and apportioned to
the school board, federal funds appropriated for educational purposes and apportioned to the
school board, local funds appropriated to the school board by a local governing body or such
funds as shall be raised by local levy as authorized by law, donations or the income arising there
from, and any other funds that may be set apart for public school purposes.
22.1-89. Management of Funds. Each school board shall manage and control the funds made
available to the school board for public schools and may incur costs and expenses. If funds are
appropriated to the school board by major classification as provided in § 22.1-94, no funds shall
be expended by the school board except in accordance with such classification without the
consent of the governing body appropriating the funds.
22.1-90. Annual Report of Expenditures. Every school board shall submit at least once each year
to the governing body or bodies appropriating funds to the school board a report of all its
expenditures. Such report shall also be made available to the public either on the
10
Code of Virginia, 1950 continued,
official school division website, if any, or in hard copy at the central school division office, on a
template prescribed by the Board of Education.
22.1-91. Limitation on Expenditures; Penalty. No school board shall expend or contract to
expend, in any fiscal year, any sum of money in excess of the funds available for school purposes
for that fiscal year without the consent of the governing body or bodies appropriating funds to
the school board. Any member of a school board or any division superintendent or other school
officer violating, causing to be violated or voting to violate any provision of this section shall be
guilty of malfeasance in office.
22.1-92. Estimate of moneys needed for public schools; notice of costs to be distributed.
A. It shall be the duty of each division superintendent to prepare, with the approval of the school
board, and submit to the governing body or bodies appropriating funds for the school division, by
the date specified in § 15.2-2503, the estimate of the amount of money deemed to be needed
during the next fiscal year for the support of the public schools of the school division. The
estimate shall set up the amount of money deemed to be needed for each major classification
prescribed by the Board of Education and such other headings or items as may be necessary.
Upon preparing the estimate of the amount of money deemed to be needed during the next
fiscal year for the support of the public schools of the school division, each division
Superintendent shall also prepare and distribute, within a reasonable time as prescribed by the
Board of Education, notification of the estimated average per pupil cost for public education in
the school division for the coming school year to each parent, guardian, or other person having
control or charge of a child enrolled in the relevant school division, in accordance with the
budget estimates provided to the local governing body or bodies. Such notification shall also
include actual per pupil state and local education expenditures for the previous school year.
The notice may also include federal funds expended for public education in the school division.
The notice shall be printed on a form prescribed by the Board of Education and shall be
distributed separately or with any other materials being currently transmitted to the parents,
guardians or other persons having control or charge of students. To promote uniformity and
allow for comparisons, the Board of Education shall develop a one-page form for this notice and
distribute such form to the school superintendents for duplication and distribution.
B. Before any school board gives final approval to its budget for submission to the governing
body, the school board shall hold at least one public hearing to receive the views of citizens
within the school division. A school board shall cause public notice to be given at least ten days
prior to any hearing by publication in a newspaper having a general circulation within the school
division. The passage of the budget by the local government shall be conclusive evidence of
compliance with the requirements of this section.
11
Code of Virginia, 1950 continued,
22.1-93. Approval of Annual Budget for School Purposes. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, including but not limited to Chapter 25 (§ 15.2-2500 et seq.) of Title 15.2, the
governing body of a county shall prepare and approve an annual budget for educational purposes
by May first or within thirty days of the receipt by the county of the estimates of state funds,
whichever shall later occur, and the governing body of a municipality shall prepare and approve
an annual budget for educational purposes by May fifteen or within thirty days of the receipt by
the municipality of the estimates of state funds, whichever shall later occur. Upon approval, each
local school division shall publish the approved annual budget, including the estimated required
local match, on the division's website, if any, or if there is no division website, the document shall
otherwise be made available in hard copy as needed to citizens for inspection.
The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall, no later than the fifteenth day following final
adjournment of the Virginia General Assembly in each session, submit estimates to be used for
budgetary purposes relative to the Basic School Aid Formula to each school division and to the
local governing body of each county, city and town that operates a separate school division. Such
estimates shall be for each year of the next biennium or for the then next fiscal year.
22.1-94. Appropriations by County, City or Town Governing Body for Public Schools. A
governing body may make appropriations to a school board from the funds derived from local
levies and from any other funds available, for operation, capital outlay and debt service in the
public schools. Such appropriations shall be not less than the cost apportioned to the governing
body for maintaining an educational program meeting the standards of quality for the several
school divisions prescribed as provided by law. The amount appropriated by the governing body
for public schools shall relate to its total only or to such major classifications prescribed by the
Board of Education pursuant to § 22.1-115. The appropriations may be made on the same
periodic basis as the governing body makes appropriations to other departments and agencies.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
14
Budgeted funds:
Suffolk Public Schools total budget consists of several funds: the Operating Fund, Grants Funds, and Food
Services Funds. The Operating Fund is the largest fund and supports the daily operational expenses of the
district. The Grants Funds consist of federal, state, and privately funded expenses that are targeted to
specific populations of students or services. The Food Services Fund is self- supporting, this means that it
does not require local appropriation dollars to operate. The program is designed to provide our students
with breakfast and lunch, some on a free or reduced basis.

comply with the State Standards of Quality and Standards of Learning. Instructional personnel and
supplies are needed to provide the quality of education set by state standards. The elementary program
provides for students in grades Pre-kindergarten through grade 5. The elementary school educational
experience enables students to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary for academic success. The
middle school program provides for students in grades six through eight. The program is designed to meet
the unique needs of pre- and early adolescent students. The major goal of the middle school program is to
provide the academic and social experiences that will prepare each student to master the Standards of
Learning objectives and will assist him/her in making choices about future programs of studies. The high
school program provides for students in grades nine through twelve. This program is designed to enable
each student to develop his/her maximum potential for success both during and after high school.
Students are encouraged to strive for excellence in acquiring basic skills; developing career decisionmaking skills; qualifying for further education and work; and participating as a responsible member of
society. The program of study is varied and extensive to allow appropriate opportunities for the needs of a
diversified student population and the demands of a rapidly changing society.
Strategic Targets:
 To provide a program of studies and activities which provide opportunities for all students to
develop knowledge, skills, concepts, habits, and attitudes that will enhance their chances for
success in school and work by ensuring the integration of academic and college-career
readiness skills

requirements which were adopted to correlate with the accreditation standards and to provide

INSTRUCTIONAL – SPECIAL EDUCATION
The Special Education program includes the specialized instructional activities for both elementary and
secondary schools, alternative day programs, private schools, public and private day treatment and
residential facilities. There has been significant growth in the general education population of the school
division during the current school year and it has been predicted that this growth will continue. During the
past several years, the special education population has been approximately twelve percent of the general
education population in the City of Suffolk. It is anticipated that there will continue to be commensurate
increases in the overall number of students with disabilities, with significant increases in the nature and
severity of disabling conditions. This program must comply with Article VIII, Section 1 of the Virginia
Constitution; Chapter 13, Article 2, Section 22.1-214 of the Code of Virginia; the Regulations Governing
Special Education Programs for Children with Disabilities in Virginia; Standards for Accreditation of Schools
in Virginia; Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA); Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act; the
Americans with Disabilities Act and the Virginians with Disabilities Act. Instructional personnel,
professional development, supplies, adaptive equipment, and assistive technology devices are needed to
provide and improve this program for our students with special needs.
The term "children with disabilities" means those children, who have not graduated from a secondary
school or completed a program approved by the Board of Education and have been evaluated, in
accordance with IDEA regulations, as having: autism; deaf-blindness; a developmental delay; an emotional
disability; a hearing impairment, which may include deafness; an intellectual disability; a learning
disability; multiple disabilities; an orthopedic impairment; other health impairment; a speech or language
impairment; a traumatic brain injury; or a visual impairment, which may include blindness; who, because
of such impairments, are in need of special education and related services and whose second birthday falls
on or before September 30th and who have not reached their twenty-second birthday on or before
September 30th.
Strategic Targets:
 To comply with the Regulations Governing Special Education Programs for Children with
Disabilities in Virginia. This includes maintaining sufficient instructional personnel to meet
student-teacher ratios
 To identify, locate and evaluate all children with suspected disabilities, ages 2 to 21 inclusive
 To provide specially designed instruction, at no cost to the parents, to meet the unique needs of
all children with disabilities, ages 2 to 21, including classroom instruction in physical education,
homebound instruction and instruction in hospitals, institutions and other settings, in
conformity with individualized education programs. The term includes instruction in physical
education, speech- language pathology and any other required related services, vocational
education, and travel (mobility) training
 To support all school division personnel in their efforts to provide an appropriate education for
every student with a disability
 To provide properly licensed/trained teachers, therapists, interpreters and support staff
according to Virginia Department of Education mandates

INSTRUCTION – GIFTED AND TALENTED
The Gifted and Talented Programs are designed to identify students with exceptional academic ability and
to provide differentiated services beyond the regular educational program to meet their needs. The
programs extend from elementary school through high school. In the earlier years, the focus is on
enrichment programs to meet the advanced maturity levels of students. As the students progress through
elementary and middle school, the lessons are more advanced, planned to support such skills as critical
thinking, creative problem-solving, developing independent research skills, and stimulating creativity. In
addition, there are opportunities for qualified students to participate in the talented art and talented music
programs.
Once students enter high school, they are encouraged to challenge themselves through honors, advanced
placement, and dual credit courses. In addition, auxiliary programs offered through the Governor’s School
provide opportunities for students to enroll in summer academic academies, foreign language immersion
programs, and year-long courses designed for the gifted visual and performing arts student.
Strategic Targets:
 To deliver educational services through differentiated instruction to eligible intellectually gifted
and artistically and musically talented students
 To increase minority student eligibility for gifted services
 To provide alternative ways to deliver services to identified gifted students

INSTRUCTION – SUMMER SCHOOL GENERAL
The Summer Program includes instructional activities for students in all schools who are in need of
additional remediation. Instructional personnel and supplies, food services, and transportation services
are needed to provide and improve this program for our students. In addition to remediation services, the
program may also play a significant role in promotion and retention decisions by providing an opportunity
for students to complete mastery of Standards of Learning objectives where mastery was not
demonstrated during the regular school year. The High school program for grades 9-12 includes repeat and
new course offerings for students in the high schools. On-time Graduation requirements make summer
school increasingly important. Summer school offerings will also make it possible for students to attend
such programs as the Governor's School and The Pruden Center for Industry and Technology.
Strategic Targets:
 To provide a continuous quality, comprehensive instructional program in grades K-5 for
students who did not fully master the Standards of Learning objectives during the regular
academic year
 To provide an instructional bridge for those students who need help meeting new academic
performance standards. These students will be identified by their failure to demonstrate
proficiency on the Standards of Learning as measured by the assessments mandated by the
State Standards of Accreditation
 To provide a program of studies and activities which will provide opportunities for all students
to develop knowledge, skills, concepts, habits, and attitudes that will enhance their chances
for success in education and work
 To provide a means of promotion to the next grade for those students who fail a single core
academic subject
 To provide an opportunity for students to take required or elective courses, related to the
graduation requirements, in order to increase student opportunities for diverse program
selection (e.g. Governor's School, The Pruden Center for Industry and Technology…)
 To provide an opportunity for students to repeat courses in which they were not successful
during the regular school year such that they are able to remain on the appropriate grade
level

INSTRUCTION – ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION
Alternative education in Suffolk Public Schools has several components. Each component is part of a
comprehensive effort to meet the instructional needs of students who may be considering leaving school
before graduating because of lack of school-related success. Factors considered in the process of
identifying these students include: number of retentions, standardized test performance, age, teacher
recommendations, academic achievement, discipline history and psychological information (if available).
There are two categories of alternative education: academic and behavioral. Each area has the same
ultimate goal – to reduce the number of students dropping out of Suffolk Public Schools.
The Alternative Education Program consists of three basic behavioral components:
The Behavioral Daytime Alternative School serves those students who have been removed from the regular
school environment because of disciplinary infractions other than those involving injury or threat of injury
to others. If successful during their assigned tenure, students may return to the regular instructional
program within the same academic year.
The Tidewater Regional Alternative Education Program is a cooperative effort with five other school
divisions in the area. This program serves serious offenders who are returning from state correctional
facilities where they had been committed for offenses involving drugs, weapons, or personal assaults. This
program may also serve students who have been recommended for long-term suspensions of 90 days or
more.
Work Plus is a cooperative program in which Suffolk Public Schools students are housed and served at the
Pruden Center for Industry and Technology. This Program is for high school students (age 17 and above)
who have not yet earned five credits.
Individualized Student Alternative Education Plan: (ISAEP) is an alternative education program designed for
those students who are at least 16 years old and who are at risk of dropping out or not accumulating
enough credits to graduate from high school.
71
INSTRUCTION – ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION
Strategic Targets:
 The successful re-assimilation of students into the regular instructional program. This goal is

GENERAL SUPPORT - TECHNOLOGY
The Code of Virginia has been amended to include "technology" as a major expenditure classification for
financial reporting. In keeping with this change to the Code of Virginia, technology is now presented as a
separate classification. Technology provides support and services to every school and department and
contributes to the division's mission of educating all students in the City of Suffolk. Technology’s
expenditures included in this section include not only technology directly related to the delivery of
classroom instruction, but also actual classroom instruction in technology. It also includes technology and
technology support provided to all administrative and operational departments providing services
supporting the education of our students.
The Technology Program provides the framework for a comprehensive, system-wide strategy for using
electronic technology to meet the instructional and administrative requirements of education.
This program develops, implements, and supports a wide variety of electronic media; such as,
microcomputers, satellite, cable and public television, telecommunications, and other audio-visual
electronics.
This program provides instructional and administrative services to assist in the use and implementation of
today's electronic media throughout the entire educational community.
