Just a reminder that October 15th is a Professional Learning Day for staff. No school for students.
Buckhannon-Upshur High School was placed on a precautionary lockdown this afternoon. Students were asked to remain in classrooms as local law enforcement performed their security sweeps throughout the building. An all clear was issued by law enforcement once the investigation was completed. Students have been released to follow their regular schedules.
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!
