This afternoon Wood County School officials were made aware of a threat made by a Williamstown Middle School student at the Wood County Schools STEAM Academy.
The Wood County Sheriff’s Department has investigated and determined there does not appear to be a credible threat at this time.
It's hard to believe, but we will soon begin the process of scheduling for the 2023-2024 school year. There are 2 documents attached.
One is scheduling and academic awards activities coming up this month into
February.
The second form is concerning the ASVAB that will be given to juniors and
sophomores this week. Students were given this form at the end of the day to
bring home as well.
