So why choose MCPS?
At MCPS, we value your growth as much as your students'. We offer generous salary supplements for advanced degrees and National Board certification, as well as tuition assistance to help you further your education.
For us, it's not just about the numbers. It's about the environment we've cultivated. Our safe, modern facilities provide a comfortable and conducive learning atmosphere for both students and staff alike.
When you're not in the classroom, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a community that truly understands the meaning of quality of life. Martinsville's scenic surroundings, nestled at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, offer a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle, while still providing the conveniences of city living.
From affordable housing and low utility rates to a thriving cultural scene – including the iconic Martinsville Speedway, Virginia Museum of Natural History, Piedmont Arts, Martinsville Mustangs baseball team, and Rooster Walk Music Festival – there's something for everyone to enjoy.
If you're hungry for continued learning opportunities, look no further than the New College Institute and Patrick & Henry Community College, right in our backyard.
There's plenty to do right here, but you don't have to look far for other activities! Martinsville's central location, less than an hour away from Roanoke, VA, and Greensboro, NC, makes it an ideal hub for exploration and adventure.
