Good evening, Preston County families , Today your student should have come home with an attendance letter and chart to monitor their absences at home. Any absence is a loss of instruction. We want all of our students present, engaged, and to be successful! Over the next several days, you will see updated Policy 4110, attendance information, via social media and our county website. Stay informed, talk with your student, and reach out for assistance from your student's administrators and/or student support team! We are here for your kids and attendance is KEY!

West Preston School will be implementing a new morning drop off and afternoon pick up route effective Monday, August 26th. Cars will still enter on the upper portion of Eby School Road near the church and will travel down the hill towards the old Arthurdale gymnasium. Instead of continuing out Eby School Road, traffic will make a left just after the gym and make a loop around the old gymnasium. Cars will then turn right to head towards the typical drop-off points at the school. Traffic will continue to flow from there as it always has. The new route is pictured below and will eliminate the blockage of Eby School road for local community members. We will continue to assess the effectiveness of this new route and make changes as needed moving forward. Please be patient as we work through this process. Have a great day!
