Good Afternoon Greenmont,
Greenmont will have a PAJAMA DAY for students and staff on Friday, January 17, 2025. The reason for this PAJAMA DAY is because we are tired and worn out and need a day to relax a bit more while we are at school!
Please be sure to dress warm with a jacket on your way to and from school and bring slippers/sneakers to wear during the day. See you all tomorrow in your comfy pajamas!
We are aware that some misinformation is circulating regarding today's dismissal times for Wood County Schools. Please note that all schools will dismiss today, Wednesday, January 15th, at their normal dismissal times. Thank you for your attention and understanding.
Wood County Schools will be on a two-hour delay on Wednesday, January 15, 2025.
Wood County Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay on Tuesday, January 14th, due to refreezing roadway conditions and low temperatures.
Grizzly Basketball Fans!
Due to last week's school cancellation, the boys basketball season will be postponed starting by one week. We will have practices this week, but there will not be any games. We will send an updated game schedule later in the week for all students/staff. Thaks for your understanding.
Welcome Back Grizzlies!
As we have a two-hour delay today, students may enter the building at 9:30 am and are tardy at 10:05 am.
Breakfast will be served which is waffles. Lunch times do not change. Today's hot lunch is calzones.
We look forward to seeing everyone back today! Happy New Year!
Correction: The January 13 edition of the *Parkersburg News & Sentinel* incorrectly stated that Wood County Schools would be adding an additional 30 minutes to the school day in relation to "equivalency time" for days missed due to inclement weather. In fact, Wood County Schools already incorporates 30 extra minutes into its regular school day, which can be used to account for missed instructional time. To be clear, Wood County Schools will not be adding 30 minutes to the end of any school day.
Wood County Schools will be on a two-hour delay on Monday, January 13. Please stayed tuned for updates.
Wood County Schools will be closed on Friday, January 10th due to secondary road conditions and single digit morning temperatures.

We hope you’re enjoying the snow week as much as we are! There’s something special about watching snow fall, sledding, skiing, maybe shoveling driveways for older neighbors, or maybe just spending time with family.
In case you’re ready to start thinking about schoolwork again, this is a reminder that our school’s social studies fair is January 24. Ready for some even better news? Even if you haven’t signed up yet, you can still do a project by contacting our sponsor, Mrs. Shuman, when we get back to school. If you wish to participate, start working on an idea and maybe get those ideas flowing!
