Mrs. Bissett and Ms. Carrie are incredibly proud of their amazing students for putting their real-world skills to the test during an unforgettable adventure in Morgantown. The class checked into a hotel, made the most of the amenities, dined like pros at a restaurant, and explored the sights around town. These hands-on experiences helped students grow in confidence and independence while creating memories they’ll carry with them for years to come.

The Aquaponics class had the opportunity to host the fourth grade and show them all the hard work they put in to keep our systems running. Students were able to see how we grow plants using fish in our tanks ranging from 55 gallons to 120 gallons. This experience was a benefit to the fourth grade and the high school students as they both were able to demonstrate what they have learned this year.

April 4, 2025 - Due to current road flooding and debris, the district is operating on a 2 hour delay.

Due to an extended power outage, the district will be dismissing students at 10:30 AM. Due to inpending weather, we will be prepared for flexible instruction if necessary. We will communicate this information to families as soon as possible.

The PSAT 10 will be administered to all 10th grade students on Wednesday, April 2nd. The PSAT 10 provides students with valuable practice for the SAT and insight into their academic strengths and areas for improvement. This year, the test will be online, so it is important that students: bring their fully charged Chromebook on the day of testing and computer charger to ensure their device stays charged throughout the test. Please remind your student to come prepared for a successful testing experience. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the counseling office.

I'm excited to announce the arrival of our very own bee hive! Mr. Painter brought the idea to me in 2023, and after applying for the grant through Whole Foods, we were awarded an observation hive to place inside the classroom. Thursday evening, I was able to transfer our package of bees into the observation hive and carefully place it in the classroom. For next couple of weeks, the fourth grade students will be learning A LOT about the bees and their importance in food production. I'm looking forward to visits from other grade levels as well.
