Administration is aware of the recent arrest of classroom teacher Madison Day. The criminal charges, if true, are wholly unacceptable and contrary to every expected behavior of a school employee.
Day, as required by state school personnel law, was immediately removed from her teaching job and extracurricular contracts when school administration initiated an investigation.
Appropriate personnel action will continue to be taken regarding Days’ employment status, but please understand personnel laws at this time prevent administration from being specific as to what the next step is, as employees are entitled to due process. However, Day is not and will not be in any classroom. In the near future and after following appropriate due process steps, administration will be making recommendations regarding Days’ employment to the Pendleton County Board of Education.
The West Virginia Department of Education has also been notified and it is anticipated that the WVDE will also take appropriate steps, such as immediately suspending Days’ teaching license given the pending criminal action.
The school system will make no further comments given the pending criminal action.
Please join us in congratulating our Teacher of the Year, Title I Interventionist Mrs. Sandy Armstrong, and our Service Personnel of the Year, Mrs. Connie Hedrick!
We are so lucky to have such dedicated, hardworking individuals in our building. Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs. Hedrick go above and beyond each day to support our students, staff, and school community. Their commitment, kindness, and strong work ethic truly make a difference at BES.
These two amazing staff members are very deserving of this recognition and we know they will represent BES in the most positive way. We couldn’t be more proud!
👏 Congratulations, Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs. Hedrick! 👏

We were shocked and disturbed during our review of the messages. This language and behavior do not reflect the values or expectations of Pendleton County Schools. Our school system is committed to fostering an environment of respect, dignity, and inclusion for all students, families, and members of our community.
Because this conduct is unequivocally inconsistent with those values, the individual is no longer serving as a citizen coach within Pendleton County Schools. Immediate action was taken to end the individual’s services in that role.
We sincerely apologize to the family who was directly impacted by these messages. While the messages were communicated in the individual’s personal capacity using private social media or technology, they nonetheless cast an unwanted shadow on our school system given his former coaching role.
Pendleton County Schools also apologizes to our employees and community members who work every day to uphold the values of respect, dignity, and inclusion that define our schools.
All Students and 200-Day Employees will be out of school on the following dates: March 30th, March 31st, April 1st, and April 2nd.
Subject to change if any out of school days occur between March 16th and March 26th.
