Halifax County Public Schools has Campus Portal so that parents can be active participants in their child’s academic progress. The Campus Portal is a communication tool that provides you with secure access to your child’s school information. It gives you access to your child’s attendance, schedule, grades, assignments, student to-do list, and behavior.

Staff will be available to help you set up your Campus Portal during Open House.

Meadville Elementary thanks the Halifax County Public Schools Education Foundation Grant for the opportunity to see the metamorphosis that ladybugs and butterflies go through. We watched them both and recorded the daily changes. We then released them outside on our campus.

Meadville Elementary enjoyed a fun-filled day of learning at Staunton River State Park on May 19, 2025. Students enjoyed wilderness walks, a wagon ride, and nature crafts! Thank you to the park staff for making this day possible for our students.

The last day of school for students will be Thursday, May 22, 2025. Students will be dismissed at the normal dismissal time. We hope you have a wonderful, safe summer!
