Portsmouth Public Schools is committed to providing students and teachers with technology resources to enhance the learning environment. We are committed to providing 21st century learning capabilities to our students.

PPS received a grant,Virginia e-Learning Backpack Initiative, by the Virginia Department of Education to help us provide high school students with devices that extend learning beyond the walls of a classroom. These devices will promote communication, collaboration, and creation.
