RD843 - Page County Public Schools - H? 2278 Accessibility Report – November 11, 2025
Executive Summary: In accordance with Virginia House Bill 2278 (2025), Page County Public Schools (PCPS) completed a comprehensive review of the physical accessibility of all school buildings and grounds for individuals with disabilities. In addition to this present-day review, PCPS was also able to conduct a Facility Condition Assessment completed in 2023 by Bureau Veritas. This study was completed in August of 2023 on all facilities owned by PCPS. Furthermore, PCPS is in the midst of a Facility planning study lead by RRMM Architects. Final recommendations from that study will be presented in January of 2026. As required, this review addresses: (i) physical accessibility challenges in school buildings and grounds; (ii) challenges in access to programming and support; (iii) the plan to eliminate barriers; and (iv) how state agencies can assist. This report affirms that: 1. PCPS facilities were constructed in compliance with the building codes in effect at the time of their original construction. 2. All subsequent new construction, renovations and additions meet current accessibility standards, including the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) and the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design; and 3. PCPS has annual processes that support our commitment to ongoing review and improvement. |
