I “herd” that New Haven Elementary had an egg-cellent Farm to School Celebration! Students learned about farm animals, bee-keeping, apple butter making, butter making, and how to milk a cow! The day was full of hayrides, laughter, smoothies and “udderly” wonderful moments. Kuddos to New Haven administration and staff for producing a great, educational, event for the students.
Also a huge thank you to all of the following for making the day a success:
American Electric Power-Mountaineer Plant
Bob's Market & Greenhouses
Jamestown Dairy
Glenville State University
New Haven Elementary PTI
Mason County Schools Nutrition Program
WV State Farm Museum

We are aware of threats circulating about PPJSHS & PPIS. Out of an abundance of caution additional personnel and heightened security will be at both locations in the morning. Authorities have been notified & additional officers will be on patrol. Please know that the safety & security of our students & staff are our primary concerns.

Families, we want to say Thank You for investing your most valuable resource with us. We are committed to helping your student achieve success and reach his or her goals. September is Attendance Awareness Month. Attention has been focused on chronic absenteeism, which includes both excused and unexcused days, because any loss of instruction has an impact on a student. We are here to help and look forward to working with you. A magnet was provided to every student, if you did not receive one, please contact your child’s school and ask for another. This magnet provides a place to keep track of any days missed, in addition to resources that you may find valuable. Again, a reminder there was a printing error and Election Day is November 5, not November 8.
A big Mason County "Thank You!" to The American Legion Auxiliary who held a School Supply Drive and donated Mason County Schools all they collected #MasonProud
