Principal's update:
Next week, students will be participating in the Math and ELA interim assessment. This benchmark test will provide performance data that will help our teachers plan instruction for the remainder of the school year. This test, known as the Fixed Form CIA, will give students the opportunity to practice logging into the same platform they'll use for the WV General Summative Assessment in May.
Early Dismissal - January 27, 2023
The faculty senate meeting canceled due to inclement weather in Dec. will take place on Friday, Jan. 27, 2023. Students in all Jefferson County Schools will DISMISS TWO HOURS EARLY that afternoon to accommodate the rescheduled meetings. We recognize the importance of these legally required meetings to give faculty senates time to meet and discuss important issues. Thank you for supporting their work and partnering with us for student success.
