❄️Update for Parents and Students ❄️ Our district has one snow day left before snow packets start. Snow packets ensure that students can continue meaningful learning on snow days or emergency closures while preserving our summer break. We are permitted to use 5 non-traditional learning days (snow packet days) before we have to make up days at the end of the school year. ❄️📚 If you have questions about snow packets, please contact your child's school for more information. Let's keep learning, no matter the weather! 🌟

A blue snowy background with the the PCS logo and the following text: Parents and Students: As of January 2, 2025, our school district has just one snow day left before students will need to start completing their snow packets. Please ensure you are prepared for this transition. To provide additional support during snow packet days, each school will now hold “office hours” via Teams/email. Students and parents can reach out with questions during that time and a staff member will respond. These hours will be posted to each school’s website/social media accounts after the next snow day.

Due to current and forecasted weather, all Pocahontas County Schools will operate on a 3-hour delay on Thursday, January 2, 2025. We feel it is important for our drivers to start their routes in daylight when the weather conditions are questionable.
