Next week is National School Lunch Week. President John F. Kennedy created National School Lunch Week (NSLW) in 1962 to promote the importance of a healthy school lunch in a child's life, and the impact it has inside and outside of the classroom. We have selected fan favorites to highlight the week, as well as focusing on a "farm to table" day on Wednesday, featuring WV pork and fruits. And as always in Preston County Schools, all students eat for FREE.
Academic Boosters will meet tomorrow, Tuesday, October 8th at 6pm in the cafeteria. All are welcome to attend.
After some construction delays and installation headaches, our playground is shade is ready to go! There are several people and groups we need to thank for making it happen. First we need to thank Joe Alexander, Piccolomini Development, and Cord Hayes for volunteering to do the installation. Marcon Building Supply for donating the concrete, and Bruceton Academic Boosters for purchasing it through their fundraising. Our next step is to get some picnic tables from PHS' carpentry program to put underneath it. The kids are excited for this new addition to our playground!
