Keep our kids safe! Thank you to our local police officers who are always looking out for our school and community!

As we approach the start of the new academic year next week, we remind everyone to use extra caution when driving through the Elementary School Zone.

The speed limit is 15 mph when the lights are flashing. Law enforcement officers will be present to enforce all posted speed limits in the school zone. Speeding in a school zone may result in fines and, if the speed limit is exceeded by 15 mph or more, possible jail time.

West Virginia law also prohibits passing a stopped school bus when its stop arm is extended. Violations may result in fines, possible jail time, and a 60-day driver's license suspension.

Please stay alert, slow down, and help keep our students, families, and staff safe. Let us work together to ensure a safe and successful academic year!

It was great to welcome back the West Liberty High School Alumni group for another school tour. West Liberty Elementary surprised the group by hanging all their class pictures in the hallway and purchased donor name plates for the book vending machine. Alumni graciously donated new books last year for our student book vending machine. Yesterday, they made another monetary donation to support our classroom teachers.

⏰ Kids, don’t worry, you still have time!

📅 Families, save the date!

🎒 Optional events are a great way to put names to faces, meet other families, and learn a bit more about YOUR school! These events are pop-in ready meaning you don’t have to allot the entire time to swing by and visit!

✏️ As always, if these dates don’t work for your family, give the school a call once administrators, secretaries, and counselors are back in the building (8/6) to see if you can swing by at another opportunity.

🦅 It’s also not too late to register with Ohio County Schools for the upcoming school year. Call your local school on or after 8/6 to learn what documents you need to get registered.

🕶️ We’ll see you soon!

🙋🏻‍♀️ If a family needs further assistance reading this graphic or clarifying times, we’ll help you work through it. Give us a call at 304-243-0300 M-F from 8-4.
