At the November 12 Board Meeting, the Board approved a plan for how we will handle inclement weather days this school year:
The first 5 inclement weather days will be traditional snow days, meaning schools will be closed with no instruction.
Starting with the 6th inclement weather day, we will transition to Non-Traditional Instructional/Remote Learning Days to continue learning from home.
We hope this plan provides clarity and helps families prepare for the winter months ahead!

Statement from Morgan County Schools and Local Law Enforcement:
We consider the safety of our students and staff as our top priority. Along with all other State Superintendents, a conference call was completed late this morning with members of the West Virginia Department of Education and Homeland Security. During that meeting, a social media post with a list of high schools was shared with Superintendents. Neither Berkeley Springs High School or Paw Paw High School was listed on that social media post with 40+ high schools throughout the state of West Virginia. There have been NO specific threats received or reported to local law enforcement or Morgan County Schools.
We will continue to monitor this situation and will continue to communicate with local law enforcement. If you see something on social media (including snapchat) do not re-share it, call 911. Again, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.
Updated Statement from Morgan County Schools and Local Law Enforcement:
Upon further investigation, law enforcement has concluded that the Morgan County student’s threat on social media (on 9/10/2024) has been deemed not credible. Our investigation concluded that the student had taken a screenshot of a threat posted by a student in a neighboring state. Unfortunately, there have been a series of social media threats throughout the region and country the past 2-3 days. Social media threats occur frequently and law enforcement is actively investigating each and every threat reported and providing us with ongoing updates. We take the safety of our students and staff as our top priority. There is no reason to believe that any school in our area is in danger and students should feel safe attending school tomorrow.
