What is Virginia STAR?

The Virginia Student Training and Refurbishment program (Virginia STAR) students refurbish surplus hardware from state agencies or private companies and earn IT repair certification. Once refurbished, these computers are donated to families and organizations who need a computer.

Students in the VA STAR program can earn IT repair certifications and skill sets that can develop into well paying jobs. The program is administered through Prince William County Public Schools and is a program of SPARK, The Education Foundation for Prince William County Public Schools.

Computer Donation

Virginia STAR is currently accepting laptop computers for the 2024-25 school year. Please contact Virginia STAR to arrange a donation.
