During its March 2, 2026, meeting, the Fredericksburg City School Board approved the appointment of Tiffany Acors as Mental Health and Safety Coordinator.
Acors most recently served with Spotsylvania County Public Schools as Director of School Counseling, where she led school counseling student-based mental health teams, implemented school-wide support programs, and developed and monitored a comprehensive school counseling program aligned with state and national standards.
Her previous experience includes serving as a School Counselor for Northumberland County Public Schools and an English and Theater teacher with Richmond County Public Schools, where she focused on building strong relationships with students while supporting both academic and social development.
Acors holds a Master of Education in School Counseling from Liberty University, a Master of Education as a Reading Program Specialist (PreK-12) from Liberty University, and a Bachelor of Science in Education, English 7-12 from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania.
“I am committed to fostering a safe and responsive learning environment that promotes a positive climate and student well-being,” said Acors.
Superintendent Dr. Marci Catlett emphasized the importance of the role in supporting students and staff across the division.
“Positions like Mental Health and Safety Coordinator are essential to the well-being of our school communities,” said Dr. Catlett. “Ms. Acors brings both the professional expertise and the compassionate leadership needed to support students, staff, and families. Her work will help ensure that our schools remain safe, responsive environments where every child can learn, grow, and thrive.”
Fredericksburg City Public Schools looks forward to the leadership and experience Ms. Acors brings to this important role and proudly welcomes her to the FCPS community.

Dr. Marceline Catlett Named Virginia Division III Superintendent of the Year
The Virginia Association of School Superintendents (VASS) is pleased to announce that Dr. Marceline “Marci” Catlett, Superintendent of Fredericksburg City Public Schools, has been selected as the 2027 Region III Superintendent of the Year.
Dr. Catlett has served as Superintendent of Fredericksburg City Public Schools since 2019. With more than four decades of service to the division, her leadership has been defined by a steadfast commitment to academic excellence, student well-being, and community partnership. Under her leadership, Fredericksburg City Public Schools has implemented strategic initiatives focused on closing achievement gaps, expanding Career & Technical Education (CTE) opportunities, strengthening school safety measures, and enhancing family engagement.
Her tenure has been marked by measurable academic growth, including gains achieved through the expansion of the James Farmer Scholars program, as well as innovative safety initiatives such as the early adoption of cellphone-free learning environments, robust mental health and wellness programs, and enhanced security technologies. Dr. Catlett has also championed transparent communication practices, leading to the development of a dedicated communications team and the expansion of division-wide engagement structures designed to strengthen connections among students, families, staff, and the Fredericksburg community.
Tracy Seitz of Middlesex County Schools, the 2026 Region III Superintendent of the Year and Region III Lead Superintendent stated, "Our Region III colleagues recognize Dr. Marci Catlett as a regional leader and appreciate her service. Personally, I have the utmost respect for Marci in how she conducts herself in small and large groups. She is humble and a person of faith. With that, Marci has helped me ground myself in becoming a better leader."
Chair Katie Pomeroy added, "On behalf of the Fredericksburg City School Board, it is with great pride that we congratulate Dr. Catlett on being named Region III Superintendent of the Year. As a graduate of Fredericksburg City Public Schools who began her career here as a sixth-grade teacher and has devoted her entire career to our division, Dr. Catlett leads with optimism, a growth-centered mindset, and a deep commitment to serving and supporting our students, staff, families, and the Fredericksburg community."
As the Region III Superintendent of the Year, Dr. Catlett will now compete with other division winners for the 2027 Virginia Superintendent of the Year Award. The statewide winner will be announced at the Annual VASS Conference this spring.
