From all of us at Preston County Schools, we wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving.
With the holidays upon is, let's not forget the importance of body, mind and spirit. Staff, if you completed the November Wellness Challenge, please be sure to certify by December 1st at https://forms.office.com/r/R6rMGbQgjf
And if you're continuing, or you haven't got started yet with your goals, December's is now available. Remember, our students get the best when you're at your best.
Students, don't let the winter blues affect your physical wellness and mind. Each month, December through March, we will be posting a monthly wellness challenge for students, along with a QR code and link to verify your participation. All students who participate will be placed into a drawing to win prizes in January, February, March and April. Prizes will be related to physical fun and announced later. Good luck and let's keep moving kids.
If you are seeing multiple of the same posts on school Facebook pages, we apologize as the system we are using was having both a lag yesterday and today in posting and duplicated some posts. We have worked with our app, and the problem should be resolved. We hope everyone is enjoying some extra time home with family this week.
Dear Families,
We are thankful for you!
As we prepare to take time off from school November 25-29 for the Thanksgiving break, we are grateful for everyone who has helped to restore a routine for showing up to school while supporting students and families.

As the weather changes, please be sure to reference our alternative bus stop schedule in the event that stops need to change due to inclement weather or road closures.
Although not in school today due to the inclement weather, Preston County Schools, our staff and students, are always thankful for the amazing substitute teachers that have and continue to dedicate themselves to our students' educations. Thanks for being such a valued part of our team.

Preston County Schools will be closed tomorrow, Friday, November 22nd. Maintenance, Mechanics, and 240+ custodians report on schedule. All additional 240-day+ employees may report on a 2-hour delay. All other employees and students do not report and all scheduled extra-curricular activities are postponed.
It's getting to be that time of year again. The WVDE affords us the opportunity, due to our extended length days at certain schools, to use that time to be able to have alterative learning days in the event of inclement weather. In Preston County, we call those Brain Freeze Days. Below, you will find the information you will need in the event one of these days are called. Any questions or concerns, please reach out to your child's teacher or building principal.
Calendar updated and updated online to include 2, two-hour early outs on February 7th and May 9th as teacher work time towards progress reports and grading. As always, if we have more inclement weather days off, delays, or early-outs, this is always subject to change and will be communicated with advanced notice.
