The week of April 20-24 your child should be bringing home a permission slip for the wellness center to administer the 12th grade required immunization which is typically only a meningococcal booster during the school day.

Please return the permission form if interested by April 28th. If you have any questions, please call Kristin Skeen Stover the school nurse at 304-372-7355.

Parents and guardians of seniors, the deadline to submit the FAFSA for PROMISE Scholarship eligibility is March 1st! Remember, students must submit a FAFSA to receive financial aid. Even if you believe your student won’t qualify for need-based aid, the FAFSA is still required in order to receive scholarships, grants (like the West Virginia Invests Grant, the Higher Education Grant, and the Pell Grant), loans, work-study programs, and more. You can complete the FAFSA quickly and easily at studentaid.gov. Make sure you complete the FAFSA for the school year 2026-2027.
If you have questions, call West Virginia’s financial aid hotline at 877-987-7664 to speak to a financial aid expert.
