This morning, March 10, 2023, a Wood County Schools bus on Lee Creek Road experienced mechanical issues, causing the vehicle to fill with smoke. Students were immediately evacuated and there were no injuries. The fire department was called as a precaution and a second bus was sent to pick up the students. The bus was carrying students bound for Lubeck Elementary, Blennerhassett Middle and Parkersburg South High School. Again, all students are safe and will be dropped off at their respective schools. We will update as additional details become available.

A section of Division Street will be closed to through traffic beginning Monday, Jan. 23, 2023. A Parkersburg Utility Board project will close Division Street from Blizzard Drive to Division Street Extension. Work will run from 7 a.m.-6 p.m. daily and is expected to take 3 weeks to complete. Families are urged to find alternate routes for student pick up and drop off at Franklin Elementary Center, Parkersburg South High School, the Wood County Technical Center and Gihon Elementary School. Motorists also should plan for delays due to increased traffic. Buses 201, 128, 146 and 144 will run modified routes, and all area buses may experience delays due to increased traffic. Drivers of special education buses will contact families directly if delays would affect pick up and drop off times for other schools. Please be patient and allow more time in your morning and evening commutes as we adjust to this road closure.
