Culpeper County Public Schools (CCPS) is excited to announce the return of the Back to School Bash for its third year! Mark your calendars for Saturday, August 1, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Culpeper County High School.
After the overwhelming success of past year’s events, CCPS continues to expand and improve the Back to School Bash to make it even more exciting for students and families. The event will once again offer free food, free backpacks filled with school supplies and free haircuts for students. Families should stop by their school’s table at the event, located in the bus loop, to learn how to receive these services.
This year’s Bash will also feature even more vendors and local organizations, providing valuable resources and fun giveaways. Students can enjoy a variety of activities, including bounce houses, a dunk tank, and a bicycle course, all designed to celebrate the start of a new school year in a fun and supportive environment. New this year, we will add a “center stage” area for groups to perform throughout the event.
We are currently recruiting community partners to join us at the event. Interested organizations should complete this partnership form.
