With BCS offering two entrée choices this year, please ask your student to know what they'd like ahead of time so we can move the lunch line as quickly as possible. Thank you!

On Tuesday, October 14th from 6:00 – 7:00 pm we will be having our annual ‘Dads and Kids’ Pizza Night at our school. You will meet here at the school cafeteria at 6:00 pm for FREE pizza and drinks. At 6:30 we will have a presentation about our WATCH D.O.G.S.® (Dads Of Great Students) Program. WATCH D.O.G.S.® is an innovative program being used by schools across America which helps them to be positively impacted by the committed involvement of fathers and father-figures in their student’s life. Our goal is to have you spend at least one day this year at the school to be a positive male role model and to provide an extra set of eyes and ears.

Dads, granddads, uncles, step-dads and adult brothers . . . this is your chance to have a night out alone with your student in a fun atmosphere at school.

A permission slip went home with each student on Friday so please make sure you send it back to school so we have a head count for the pizza and drinks.

Thank you!

Mr. McDonald and Ms. Reese are doing their annual shoe drive. If you have any lightly-used men's, women's or intermediate-aged children's shoes, you're encouraged to donate them to students in need. Last year, the PE department helped over 100 students at Potomack who were in need of shoes! They're stored in the gym office and given out to students who need them.

Thank you!

If your student is in need of a bookbag and/or school supplies, please email Mr. Malcolm at chad.malcolm@k12.wv.us. We have many available and would love to ensure students have all they need.

Zoey is a dedicated Peewee Cheerleader for the Eastern Panhandle Youth Football League! Next year, she’ll be moving up to cheer with the Freshman team alongside her friends.

Zoey’s commitment to her team and her love for what she does truly shine through. She’s a wonderful, kind person who’s always ready to help whenever you ask. Her positive attitude and team spirit make her such an important part of her cheer family!

Keep shining, Zoey! We’re so proud of you!
