On Wednesday, December 4th, while being presented with a program from WVU Medicine Healthy Minds, students at Aurora were met with an unexpected, but very welcomed visitor, as Angie Zofchak, Director of Attendance and Student Services, brought Sir Chester to interact and give our students at Aurora some snuggles. Not sure who loved the visit more, but Sir Chester and the Aurora Bears were smiling from ear to floppy ear that day. Preston County schools is enjoying the offerings of its newest staff member and mascot, and thanks to PHS for letting Sir Chester spread his love and care to other students.





Students, we are having a door decorating contest! The staff at Aurora School has been hard at work creating some awesome door designs. To vote, just bring in your spare change and drop it in the container by the door. Voting starts Monday and all proceeds will go to the Preston County Animal Shelter. Visitors can vote for their favorite door on December 12 during the Holiday Concert.
