Due to inclement weather conditions, all Pocahontas County Schools will be closed on Tuesday, January 7. Students will complete Snow Packet #2.
Stay warm and safe.
The January 7th, 2025, Pocahontas County Board of Education meeting has been canceled due to inclement weather. It has been rescheduled for Tuesday, January 14th. It will start at 6 pm at the Board of Education Office at 404 Old Buckeye Road, Buckeye, WV.
Please be careful in the storm. This day does count as a day not in school even though it is a State of Emergency. The State of Emergency will free up funding for our state during the storm.
Students will need to work on their first day of snow packets.
Stay safe and warm!
📢Parents and Students❄️:
Beginning our next snow day/school cancellation, students will need to start completing their snow packets. ❄️ Snow packets ensure that students can continue meaningful learning on snow days or emergency closures while preserving our summer break.
We are permitted to use 5 non-traditional learning days (snow packet days) before we have to make up days at the end of the school year. ❄️📚
🗣️📞To provide additional support during snow packet days, each school will now hold “office hours” via Teams/email. Students and parents can reach out with questions during that time and a staff member will respond. These hours are posted to each school’s websites and on the district site here: https://boe.pocahontas.k12.wv.us/page/snow-packet-info.
If you have questions about snow packets, please contact your child's school for more information or use the office hours to reach out to your child's teacher on snow days. ☃️
Quick update on Pre-K registration: Application packets will be available the next day school is in session. Stay safe and warm! ❄️☃️
Pocahontas County Schools is closed due to winter weather and snow predictions for Friday, January 3, 2025. Stay safe!
