Putnam Students Getting Ready …

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

Today is the first day that WV high school football can legally hold practice, and yes, some of our Putnam football players were on the field at the stroke of midnight getting in as much practice as possible.  (We take high school football seriously around here!)  The high school marching bands have already been practicing […]

What’d Ya Say, Freddie?

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

After a week of snow days with the kids, I am really hoping French Creek Freddie wakes up on Groundhog’s Day tomorrow and predicts an early spring for West Virginia.  If he sees his shadow we’re in for 6 more weeks of winter.  No shadow and we get a nice, early spring.  He’s a smart […]

Drug Testing at Putnam County Schools?

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

Quite possibly, yes.
At the last Putnam County Board of Education meeting, the Drug Endangered Children Task Force proposed a program to drug test children in our schools. This is an opt-in program, meaning that for your child to be tested, you will have to sign up saying you’d like your child to be […]

This has been a cause of some stress for the Scott Teays students as that […]

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

WSAZ.com has a new feature that emails school closings directly to your inbox. I thought that was really nice, but I’m up early anyway and thought I’d just check in for myself.
This morning with our flood watches, I realize how this service could help me. I’ve been caught unaware by early school dismissals […]
