Next week is testing week across Preston County for students in Grades 3-8. These students will be taking the WV General Summative Assessment (WVGSA), which is an online, end-of-year standardized test. It measures how well students are meeting the state's content standards for English Language Arts (ELA), math, and science. The WVGSA is used to assess student progress and inform instruction. Please take note of these testing tips below, go over them with your student, and ensure they get plenty of rest each school night.

Thanks to all who participated over the winter, both students and staff, and many thanks to Titan Roofing for supplying our staff overall winners with gift cards. Student prizes provided through state wellness grant. Congratulations to all of our winners who will receive their prizes the beginning of next week.
