With nearly 70,000 students and over 10,000 employees, Virginia Beach City Public Schools continues to be a highly successful, diverse school district and employer of choice. The City of Virginia Beach, located on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay, frequently makes the "best places" lists in a number of publications. Articles frequently cite its high performing schools, low crime rate and mild climate as reasons why the area is considered such a desirable place to live. Known as a vacation destination because of its 22 miles of public beaches, Virginia Beach is also a great place to live, work and play.
