❄️ 2024-2025 PCS Calendar Update❄️
This winter has certainly kept us on our toes with its heavy snowfall and multiple school closures. Pocahontas County Schools, like other districts in the state, strictly follows state policies for making up missed school days.
Our main goal is to ensure that students continue to receive a quality education while keeping everyone safe during severe weather conditions. Should our area experience more inclement weather resulting in the cancellation of school, additional adjustments will need to be made. We have attached the most recent version of our school calendar with a recap of our snow day usage. Visit this link for more info: https://bit.ly/3XmmFdd
