A new initiative from Microsoft will enable every VBCPS student to access Office 365 at no charge. With Office 365, your child will have access to programs like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and more.The software will automatically update, which means your child will be working with the latest versions of the software.

“We are excited to be able to provide our students access to this quality and quantity of software at no charge to them,” said Ramesh Kapoor, chief information officer for the school division. “This is especially important in that it is the software our students use when in schools. Undeniably, this will be an asset to their educational experience here in Virginia Beach schools.  We are grateful to Microsoft for making this possible for our students.”
