Wood County Schools is pleased to provide families with access to their students' 2026 West Virginia General Summative Assessment (GSA) results.

Students have received an email in their Wood County Schools student email account containing a personalized link to access their GSA score reports. Parents and guardians are encouraged to work with their child to retrieve the email and review the results together.

The score report provides detailed information about your child's performance and can help identify academic strengths as well as areas for continued growth.

If your child cannot locate the email or is experiencing difficulty accessing their score report, please contact your child's school for assistance.

We encourage all families to review these results and discuss them with their child as part of supporting continued academic success.

🚨 7TH GRADE KICKBALL SHIRTS 🚨 We are asking that all kickball shirt money please be turned in TOMORROW if at all possible. Shirts are $10. While money can still be turned in later this week, we are trying to collect the majority of payments tomorrow so we can move forward with ordering shirts and avoid being left with a large unpaid balance. As of Friday, we had received a little less than half of the money needed. All students who are attending school and participating on June 1st will need a shirt and will be included in the order. The ONLY students who will not receive a shirt are students who will NOT be at school that day. If you KNOW your child will not be at school on June 1st, please send a note or contact us tomorrow so we do not order them a shirt. If you are unable to send the full $10 tomorrow, ANY amount sent in would be greatly appreciated and helpful. We have also had several families generously donate more than the $10 cost to help support students, and we truly appreciate that kindness. If anyone would like to contribute extra, it is always welcomed. Thank you for helping us make this a fun event for our 7th graders! 🖤💛
