Preston County Schools Celebrates National School Counseling Week, February 5 - 9, 2024. Thank you to all of our amazing school counselors!
Secretary Kim’s Helper and Eating Lunch With the Principal: Two of our most popular coupons purchased at the PBIS STOMP Store! These students spent tickets earned for following school-wide expectations at their classroom STOMP Store.
Who doesn’t love a good snowball fight?! PBIS monthly drawing winners in grades K-5 attended an incentive in the gym where they participated in a battle of snowballs with their teachers! These students spent tickets earned for following school-wide expectations at their classroom STOMP Store. Their ticket was then drawn from the monthly grade level incentive drawing. Congratulations, and thank you for showing us what it means to be a Stag and STOMP!

Calls will come from the Preston County Schools automated calling system via the county’s phone number 304-329-0580 and will include the student’s first and last name and the school the student attends. Families who have opted out of calls will not receive these calls. Questions regarding student attendance issues should be directed to the student’s school of record.

If you are seeing “tardies” on your student’s attendance records, it may be due to being signed out before dismissal. This code doesn’t always refer to a late arrival. We hope this answers some of the questions regarding student attendance for the first semester. As always, if you have questions or concerns, you can contact Mrs. Brewer, Secretary Kim, or Mrs. Peaslee.

Due to the deep snow on the Fireman's Field and projected rain for the week in the forecast, we will be changing our evening dismissal in an effort to keep everyone safe and avoid vehicles getting stuck. We will NOT stage Parent Pick-Up on the Fireman’s Field from January 23 through January 26th. Families, park within walking distance to KES. Report to the exterior doors of the gym. You will give the student's name to a staff member located at the gym doors closest to the Early Childhood Building. Please be prepared to show ID! Then, wait in line for your child. Staff members will bring students to you . We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
Preston County Schools will live stream the Math Field Day Awards today 1/23/24 at 12:30 pm, https://tinyurl.com/PCSLivestream
