Exciting news! 🎉

Our 180-day waiver request for Calhoun County has been approved by the West Virginia Department of Education. This means we will not have to make up any additional days that were missed due to weather.

The students’ last day of school will remain the same as the approved 2025–2026 school calendar.

📅 The last day for students will be May 29th.

If you have questions, feel free to reach out to your school’s main office.

We have been made aware of a situation within the county that is unrelated to the school system. Out of an abundance of caution, all Calhoun County Schools are currently on a soft lockdown until further notice. During a soft lockdown, all students and staff remain safely inside the building, and normal classroom instruction continues. The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority. We will provide updates as more information becomes available. Thank you for your understanding and support.

We want to take the time to acknowledge the children who have come to school and worked hard. Every week we will be featuring a child at random from each grade level, and one student will be selected to be the student of the week and at the end of the month we will draw one winner for a prize. Let’s show these kids how awesome it is that they show up and make it happen. WAY TO GO!!

- Grades 5–6: Willis Gainer‑Pittman
- Grades 7–8: Harlow Sarratori
