Tomorrow begins 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.

Good afternoon. Terra Alta East Preston School is without water at this time. However, the county is bringing us jugs of water to flush toilets, and we have bottled water if students need a drink. We've decided it is too close to the end of our day to dismiss, and we do not want to place extra burden on parents with an early dismissal. Therefore, we will finish our school day today as scheduled. We just want to make families aware that we are without water, but we do have plans in place. Thank you.
