Our Student Council Bond Committee and Senior Class Officers recently met with Principal Dailer to make furniture and design selections for our new Patriot Point. This space will be dedicated to our Seniors...a relaxing space for them to eat, lounge and enjoy one another.
One of the highlights will be the original WP logo from the old main entrance used as a focal wall. #experienceTHEPARK #wearePARK
Math Tutoring Tonight!

Based on the first nine-week accountability grade data, our students are still struggling to submit work in a timely manner. We believe that it is in the best interest of our students to stay on pace with their classwork. With this in mind, we will be adding a 1/2-way grading cut for the 2nd nine weeks. Any missing classwork due on or prior to Tuesday, November 23rd must be submitted by Sunday, November 28th, 11:59 p.m. to receive credit. If not turned in, those assignments will turn to a zero. Classwork submitted late will be graded and entered in Schoology by Monday, December 6th. Assessments can always be made up; however, we recommend taking assessments in a timely manner so that subject matter is fresh and learning is at its peak. Again, we believe this cut-off is beneficial to our students' learning and building accountability in their daily classwork.
Please note: Interim will be pulled and printed normally. They will come home on Tuesday, November 30th. Interim report cards will not be reflective of all these late work submissions as our teacher will use the week of Nov. 29th to complete this grading.
The 2021 yearbooks are in and can be picked up in room 0260A any time during regular school hours!
We hosted a school wide assembly to honor Veteran's Day today. Our celebration included the Moundsville Honor Guard presenting the colors and our Young Patriots singing the National Anthem. Guest speaker, John Lanos, spoke to the student body about honor and sacrifice. The students learned about the history of taps as well as the Military Child's Table. It was an informative and respectful ceremony that wrapped up with our veteran staff receiving certificates of appreciation for their service.
