Let the 2026-2027 school year begin for our fabulous Leadership Team!! Today was day one of our annual Leadership Academy. Former Superintendent Charles Hedrick shared Legislative Updates, as well as other information with our team. Hannah Cooper, WVDE Coordinator Office of Instructional Leadership and Division of Instruction and Support provided Policy 4373 training and shared some examples/scenarios for staff. Many thanks to Charles and Hannah for working with Pendleton County Schools. Nicole Hevener, Superintendent and Kristy Tritapoe, Assistant Superintendent also presented information throughout the day. Great input from all our leaders and lots of learning as we gear up to welcome students, staff, parents, and community members back into our buildings. Thank you to all our leaders for today and to those aspiring to be leaders that joined us.

It's almost time for Back-to-School! Don't forget to get your updated vaccines to be able to start the new school year.

Woohoo, Congratulations North Fork Elementary School on your new stage curtains. They look absolutely wonderful. A Big Thank You to Davis Athletics, John Davis and the Pendleton County Board of Education!!

Good evening! Pendleton County Energy Express will be on a 2 hour delay Wednesday, July 22, 2026. Please stay safe.
Summer School 2026 students and staff finished their last week with an art project, a visit to the Pendleton County Public Library for story time, and a visit from DNR K-9 Unit. PC Schools wants to say a huge THANK YOU to all our community partners for volunteering time for the students. Thank you to all summer school staff, parents, and students, we are already looking ahead to Summer 2027!










Pendleton County 2026 Summer School was as busy as ever!! Students have been building experiences with story painting and creating, writing about experiences to help build word knowledge, and puppet shows for retelling. The students have worked on foundational skills to develop reading and writing skills. Staff and students have worked hard and had some slime brain breaks. PC Schools wants to say Thank You to our summer school staff: Cook, Custodian, Bus Drivers, and Teachers, this would not be possible without any of you. A big Thank You to parents and students for participating in our program.











Pendleton County Energy Express is a FREE summer reading and arts program, which also includes some STEM education. Students are sent home each week with a book around the weekly topic, which is focused on Myself, Family, Friends, Home place, Community, and making our world a better place. It also ensures that students in the program have at least 2 meals a day throughout the 6-week summer program. Thank you to everyone that makes this program possible for Pendleton County, our volunteers, bus drivers, staff, and our community partners. Lots of learning combined with lots of fun equals a wonderful summer!







Pendleton County Schools is happy to announce our support for all Public Schools in West Virginia.
