If you have received a call from the Clay County Board of Education informing you of an opportunity to earn a $100 Visa gift card to help offset food costs this month — this is a legitimate call.
This initiative is sponsored by Save the Children and coordinated in partnership with Clay County Schools.
Participants have been selected through the Extra-Mile Delivery Program.
Due to forecasted weather conditions including temperature and precipitation, Clay County Schools will be dismissing two hours early. All athletic practices and afterschool have been cancelled.
It has been brought to our attention that some health information is being shared on social media. Our school system works closely with our local and state health departments. If a public health issue occurs, our school system will work quickly to notify parents, guardians, and staff to keep everyone informed and supported.
As we are coming into the winter months, it is always important to remember to wash your hands, use proper cough etiquette, and follow the guidance of your health care provider to stay as healthy as possible.

SCHOOL MATTERS!
ATTEND TODAY, ACHIEVE TOMORROW
ATTENTION PARENTS OF KINDERGARTEN, 7TH AND 12TH GRADE STUDENTS:
This is just a reminder to make sure your child has all required vaccinations for school entry. Recent legislation still requires all students to have required vaccinations to attend school. All 7th and 12th grade students are also required to show proof of recent Tdap and meningococcal boosters as well. Please make sure that you provide documentation of vaccinations prior to the first day of school. If your student has registered for the virtual program, these shots are still required. Under guidance of the WVDE, religious exemptions cannot be fulfilled at this time. If you have any questions, please contact your child’s school or look under School Nurse on the Departments page of our website.
Come out and enjoy a fun day at the pool!
