Preston High School

With SNAP Benefits delays approaching, PCS, and their partners at Food for Preston, want to ensure our students don't go hungry. If in need, please reach out to these food pantries or Food for Preston directly, as well as your child's school as we're here to help. Our guidance offices and social workers can work directly with local orgs, Food for Preston, and our county nutrition director, to ensure our students have food during any uncertain times.

Scam Alert: Fake WVSSAC Facebook Account (PCS will always post if we're streaming an event and on what platforms)

The WVSSAC has been made aware of fake social media (Facebook) accounts claiming to represent the WVSSAC and sharing links to live streams of high school football games. These links are not official and may be attempts to steal personal information or compromise devices.

Please exercise caution when engaging with posts or accounts claiming to represent the WVSSAC. (Or any entity claiming to stream a PCS event that hasn't been put on previously)

The official WVSSAC Facebook page has over 32,000 followers. We encourage you to verify the page details before clicking on links or sharing posts. Any other accounts claiming to be the WVSSAC, or tagging schools in suspicious posts, should be reported to Facebook immediately.

Just a reminder that tomorrow, Friday, October 24th, there will be no school for students and staff reports for professional learning. No School for students tomorrow.

We thank our community members for following the law, our local law enforcement for monitoring and enforcing the laws, and our PCS Bus Drivers for ensuring our students' safety to and from our schools and events.

The Integrated Community Engagement (ICE) Survey is a data-collection tool used by the ICE Collaborative, a substance use prevention initiative in rural communities, to gather information from students in grades 7-12.

PHS students will take this survey on October 23.
