BACK TO SCHO20O20-L 2021 Welcome from the Superintendent Dear Wood County Families, During the 2019-2020 school year, Wood County Schools, with the support of the great community members, continued to define our school system as one of the most resilient, and high achieving districts in the state of West Virginia. With your support, Wood County Schools was able to persevere through many challenges while still being able to celebrate mul - tiple achievements of academic success. March 2020, our school system experienced the state-wide school building shutdown. Research strongly suggests that there is no substitute for in-person participation in a school building. Students need their teachers and teachers need their students. While returning to school campuses is extremely important, the health and wellness of all Wood County students and employees is our top priority. With our technology initiative over the last two years, we are able to provide an iPad to every K-12 student in our county. This allows our teachers and students to utilize various technology platforms, when nec - essary, to accommodate all possibilities of instruction in the future. Before the pandemic struck, our students were on track to grow academically in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Our goal for the 2020-2021 school year is to continue our academic focus and to support our students’ and employees’ needs. Please be assured we are working diligently to take necessary steps to guard everyone’s health while providing excellent academic instruction for our students at the same time understanding that our current situation and plan may quickly change. This summer has been very busy with multiple building projects, virtual professional development seminars, and logistical - ly planning for the upcoming school year. Our service and professional employees have spent countless hours getting buildings ready, moving school equipment, and learning new technologies to provide conducive and healthy learning envi - ronments. Thank you, Wood County Schools employees, for your dedication, perseverance, and passion for making an insurmountable task a reality. Success truly takes each and every person in our school system working together to achieve. Thank you! We are here to serve the great students in our community, and we are striving Inside: to make Wood County Schools the best district in West Virginia.
