Live Like Libby 5K Run/Walk and Libby Gregg Memorial Fund

Please join us on Saturday, October 18, for the first annual Live Like Libby Walk in honor of Libby Gregg, a beloved Pinchbeck teacher, colleague, and friend. Celebrate Libby’s life and legacy with a 5K walk or run — located at 1933 Public House, 3844 Old Buckingham Rd, Powhatan, VA at 10:00 a.m. 


The Libby Gregg Memorial Fund was established in 2025. Donations to the fund will support an annual scholarship to a graduating Henrico County senior who is planning to attend a 4-year college pursuing a career in elementary education. Additionally, the fund will support the Pinchbeck Elementary School Library each year by helping purchase new books and enriching its collection for students. The Pinchbeck PTA has committed to making an annual donation of $250 to the Libby Gregg Memorial Fund each October. Click HERE to learn more about how we honor Libby at Pinchbeck. Click HERE to register for the 5K or to make a direct donation to the memorial fund.

Leader in Me Feedback- Family Survey

Did you know that the Pinchbeck PTA pays for the Leader in Me program at Pinchbeck? And we (the PTA and the School) would love your feedback! Each year Leader in Me conducts a survey in the fall to learn more about key areas of strength and areas of needed growth in our school. Please complete this survey (without sharing your name or other identifying information). We hope to get feedback from one member of every household. The Leader in Me is a whole-school improvement process based on Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, that teaches leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment. The program is a holistic, school-wide experience for students, staff, and families, providing a common language and framework for positive change within the school community.
