Upshur County Schools

Good afternoon, Upshur County Schools have been notified of internet speed delays and outages on student devices throughout the state of West Virginia. The result of this causes students to receive error messages or limited/no access to educational websites, including Schoology. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause you and your student(s). The state is working to resolve the issue, and we will provide updates as they become available. Thank you!

Are you interested in being part of a panel who will review, make suggestions, and plan for our Comprehensive Counseling Program Advisory Council? We are inviting students, families, community members, and business partners to serve on our County-wide Council that will meet twice during the 2021-22 school year. Please take a moment to complete our survey using the link below. We will be making calls to all who respond. Thank you for your time! https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=S7AZ4AwzekaLrgn7FzdNapamQM7uN5hLsSk3Sw-LBZRUQ1lWRUMzWFNHVTBFQVYwUTBUS0JFWFg1WC4u
