Marlinton Middle School placed 3rd out of 10 teams today during the Middle School Battle of the Books competition against Eastern Greenbrier Middle School teams and Western Greenbrier Middle School teams. We are so proud of the hard work our students put in this year! This was only our 2nd year competing in the competition.

🎉 Celebrating All of Our Regional Math Field Day Participants! 🎉

We are so proud of every student who represented our schools at the Regional Elementary/Middle (Including 9th Grade) Math Field Day. Students from all of our schools came together to take on a challenging and highly competitive event that showcased their problem-solving skills, perseverance, and passion for math. 🧠📐

The competition was fierce, with many students separated by just a single point in the final standings—proof of the incredible depth of talent across our region. Every participant should be applauded for the effort, focus, and determination they brought to the day.

A special acknowledgment goes to Eli, Joseph, and Noah, who were selected as alternates for the Statewide Competition!

👏 Congratulations to every student, coach, teacher and school involved! 👏

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and for your continued support of Pocahontas County Schools.

Earlier today at Pocahontas County High School, a belt on a compressor heating unit in the band room malfunctioned. As a precaution, the school initiated a fire safety drill and evacuated students to the auditorium while the fire department was contacted. The fire department has since assessed the situation and confirmed that there is no ongoing risk. All students have safely returned to their classrooms, and normal operations have resumed. At this time, the school’s phone system is temporarily down but is expected to be restored to full service shortly. Thank you
