Welcome Ms. Porter!
I am Patti Porter, the new assistant principal. I taught special education in Norfolk Public Schools for 13 years. I have taught here in VBCPS for 4 years. After teaching, I decided to go into administration. I have been an assistant principal for 12 years. I love making a child smile!
Some interesting facts about me: I am originally from New Jersey and have 4 kids. I like to garden, scrapbook, read, walk, enjoy sunsets, and spend time with family and friends!
I look forward to meeting everyone as the school year begins!

Citizenship Trait for September is RESPONSIBILITY!
New Fire Lane
First Day of School
If your child will ride the bus each day to and from school, please have him/her ride the bus on the first day of school. We understand the temptation to bring your child to school that morning, but it will really help us if students start on the first day with their normal routines. Please make sure your child's teacher knows how your child is going home. You can write a note or let the teacher know at Open House. Please don't assume your child will communicate that information to the teacher. It is a busy first day, and we want to make sure your child arrives at their destination safe, and with the proper transportation.
Colts' Code
This behavior expectation will permeate the building and extend to the buses and bus stops. We look forward to an awesome year watching our Colts be ready, responsible, and respectful!
