School Profile

 
Mary G. Porter Traditional School is a "School of Choice" serving students in first through eighth grades in the Prince William County Public School System.  As a specialty school, the foundation of the curriculum focuses on rigorous academic instruction, strong performance expectations, high behavioral standards, good attendance, uniform expectations, and consistent parental involvement. 
 
A "School of Choice" is a place where students attend by choice, rather than by geographic assignment.  Because parents choose to send their children to Porter, educators and parents can agree to shape our programs in the best interest of the students.  This is different from general public education, where the programs must consider the entire public population of the school system. 
 
The goal of our school is to provide an educational setting that meets the educational needs of all students, regardless of their gender, race, ethnicity or religious point of view.
