The 2026 Spring School Tour Series marks 10 years of PPS-PC partnering with Pitt County Schools to offer comprehensive tours at every school in the district. In that decade, hundreds of community members and families have explored Pitt County Schools firsthand.

This important workshop returns on February 9, offering another opportunity for leaders to deepen their understanding of our public school system in Pitt County and across North Carolina.
Why This Work Matters
Public schools are facing unprecedented challenges. Yet every day, extraordinary things happen in Pitt County Schools thanks to the dedication of our educators and the support of families and community partners. Public schools are essential to a strong economy, a vibrant democracy, and a thriving community. With the right resources, they can deliver a high-quality public education for every child.
