First Grade at Widmyer has been all over town! They started their adventures last week at Cacapon State Park and explored the Ice House, Court House, CNB Bank, the Country Inn, the Library AND the Star Theatre this week!! Every business who hosted our students was so welcoming and gracious and our First Graders were on their best behavior! Thank you Berkeley Springs for the tour of the town!!





In celebration of Mental Health Awareness Month students have helped Ms. Lacee decorate a banner of positive affirmations to post in the main office. The banner is a reminder to all staff, students and families that you matter, you are seen, and you are heard. Please be aware that Ms. Lacee is available for counseling services throughout the summer and can be reached via email at lacee.kidwell@k12.wv.us or by calling WES at 304-258-2024.
