🎓👏 Huge shoutout to our 11th grade students across Kanawha County Schools for knocking out the SAT School Day assessment! 👏🎓
The SAT is a big milestone — it’s a nationally recognized college and career readiness test from the College Board and is accepted by colleges and universities here in West Virginia and all over the country. Students put in the time and effort to prepare, and we’re so proud of how they showed up and gave it their all. 🙌
We also want to give a big thank you to our teachers and staff who helped get students ready and kept spirits high on test day. 💙

Way to go, Class of 2026 — your hard work is noticed, and your future is looking bright! 🌟
🇺🇸 Military Signing Week 🇺🇸
This week, we are celebrating students during Military Signing Week— these young men and women who have made the brave and selfless decision to serve our country by enlisting in the United States Armed Forces.
Watching these students sign their commitment to serve the United States has been inspiring. These aren’t just names on paper—they’re our classmates, friends, and neighbors who are stepping up to something greater than themselves.
We are so proud of each of you. Thank you for choosing a path that protects and uplifts others. 💙❤️
