This is an Important Message Regarding Bus 6 in the Pine Grove Road Area :
Bus #6 in the Pine Grove area will be late due to a police matter. All students riding bus 6 ARE SAFE and are being transported to Stanley Elementary School.

We have no estimate of the length of the delay, but will keep parents updated as we gain more information. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Please share.
An Important Weather Update for 9/1/2021
On Wednesday, September 1, all schools will dismiss early at 12:00pm as we err on the side of caution. Students will be able to eat lunch at school prior to dismissal and all after-school and evening activities are cancelled. We will continue to monitor conditions throughout the morning. If adjustments need to be made, we will provide advanced notice. Thank you to everyone for their patience and we hope everyone stays safe today.
An Important Message From Division Superintendent, Dr. Antonia Fox, Regarding Possible Inclement Weather:
We are actively monitoring the weather forecasts for tomorrow, Wednesday, September 1, which indicate we may receive heavy rains tonight and into tomorrow, as well as some wind and possible tornadoes.
At this time, no decision has been made with regards to school for Wednesday, September 1 , as we are waiting on additional forecast details. However, in order to allow parents and staff time to prepare, we are advising parents and staff that we may have to do one of three things tomorrow: We may need to call a two-hour delay; we may need to release students from school early; or we may need to cancel school altogether. If a decision can be made this evening, we will communicate with parents and staff by 8:00pm tonight. If there is not enough information to make a decision tonight, we will make a decision by 5:30 a.m. for a delay or early dismissal. Our top priority is the safety of our students, their families, and our staff.
Our hope is that weather conditions allow us to hold classes as we normally would on Wednesday. If you do not receive a message from the school division tonight or in the morning, it means that we are operating on our regular schedule tomorrow.
We hope that everyone stays safe over the next day or two. Thank you for your continued support of Page County Public Schools and we hope you have a good evening.
Antonia M. Fox, Ed.D.

Good evening PCPS Families,
We know that some families may be waiting for mask exemption information and forms. The division is working diligently to prepare this information to share with you prior to the start of school. We will provide information as soon as possible. Any parent who wishes to submit an exemption will need to complete and submit the paperwork provided by the division regardless of whether they have provided their own documentation.
Additionally, because of the delay in sharing the paperwork, we will address any first week of school concerns related to potential exemptions.
We thank you for your continued support and patience as we navigate this new process.
