Student Spotlight Form
Potomack Eagles, we want to celebrate YOU! ๐ฆ ๐
At Potomack, we love recognizing academic achievements, but we also know our students are accomplishing incredible things outside of school! ๐
If your student has a notable achievement in sports, the arts, or any other area this year, please fill out the form below. If youโre unable to access the link, you can also email Mrs. O'Donnell with a brief description of the achievement and a photo at amanda.odonnell@k12.wv.us.
Weโre excited to spotlight these amazing accomplishments on our social media page and newsletter throughout the year! ๐
Interested in Subbing at Potomack?
Potomack Intermediate has a fantastic stable of reliable, professional substitutes, but being the largest intermediate school in West Virginia means we are always looking to develop additional subs. The best place to do that is the school where your child attends! If you're interested in subbing at Potomack as either a teacher or member of our service staff, please reach out to Dr. Arch at carch@k12.wv.us.
