Report cards were distributed to students in grades K-8 today, Friday, March 20th. If you have questions about your child's grades, please contact their teacher.
You can still register your child for next year's Pre-K or kindergarten. Make sure to register soon to guarantee them their spot here at Bruceton. Contact the main office for registration information and forms at 304-379-2593. We look forward to meeting our future Bulldogs!
Bruceton School is grateful for a community that continually supports our students and staff. We extend a special thank‑you to Tony and Carol Glover of Mining Solutions Company for their generous contributions. Each year, they provide for the needs of our clothing closet and help our teachers purchase essential classroom supplies. Most recently, they made a significant donation to our school fundraiser.
The success of our school and students is directly tied to individuals like the Glovers, whose ongoing support makes a meaningful difference. As Tony recently shared, “My success as a businessman is a direct result of the education I received at Bruceton Elementary and High School. I will forever be grateful and support the school when needed.”
Middle School BARK Cards will be collected tomorrow, March 20th. Students need a parent/guardian's signature beside EACH teacher's signature to be eligible for the 3rd Quarter Reward.
You can order yearbooks online now. Log on to www.ybpay.com and use the Yearbook ID Code: 15170126

PCS Quarterly Highlights - Beat of Excellence - Winter/Early Spring Digital Edition (https://5il.co/3u0rn)
Although our students' and schools' accomplishments are highlighted regularly through Facebook(s) and our PCS Website(s), PCS will now be compiling a highlight of events of an extended period, publishing quarterly. In previous years and editions, our print magazine was funded through additional federal funds we no longer receive. Moving forward, we will print one magazine each year through parent engagement funding, typically at the start of the year, containing important information, documents, and a calendar, but then will quarterly post a "Beat of Excellence Highlight" online.

Happy Pi Day Preston County!!! March 14th is celebrated in many countries as Pi Day, because that date is written as 3/14, and the mathematical constant Pi is approximately 3.14. Today is also Einstein's birthday and recognized as the International Day of Mathematics. Every year, the International Mathematical Union announces a theme for the celebration, spark creativity and bring light to connections between mathematics and all sorts of fields, concepts and ideas. The theme for 2026: Mathematics and Hope.
Thales, the first Greek Mathematician and philosopher said, "Hope is the most universal of all human possessions."
More than 2,500 years later, we can also say that mathematics is one of the most universal human possessions.
Connecting hope and mathematics creates opportunities for deeper insight and knowledge. Mathematics gives us hope to understand reality and truth clearly, share common definitions, learn cooperation, use data responsibly, find win-win strategies, and more.
Even if you're just looking for an excuse to eat some pie, today is that day too.

PRESTON COUNTY SCHOOL CALENDAR UPDATE AND CHANGES:
Preston County Schools would like to provide an update related to our current year academic calendar. This will be reflected with an updated calendar on the county page later today. A waiver request of the 180-day requirement was submitted by Mr. Martin on March 6th for a waiver of (4) dates that were missed due to weather during the last week of January that were a part of the Governor's emergency declaration. The waiver has been approved. As a result, the last day of school for students will be Thursday, May 28th if the district has no additional snow days between now and the end of the school year. This will also allow Tuesday, April 7th to now be a day off of school for students and 200-day staff for an extended Easter Break as it was previously scheduled to be prior to the snow. If we have any snow days for the remainder of the year, announcements will be made on needed calendar adjustments.
