Schoology Set Up Schoology Set Up

Please see the information below for instructions on how to set up parent accounts in Schoology to stay up to date on your child's education.


As a reminder, anything important that is time sensitive (bus changes, early pick up notification, etc.) will need to be communicated through a phone call with the office.


Any message that can wait 24 hours (question to the teacher not related to "day of" changes) should be sent to the teacher via Schoology.

Bank Day at School Applications Bank Day at School Applications

Bank Day at School is a great way for students to learn financial responsibility as they make a deposit into their accounts with staff members from City National Bank each month in the cafeteria. If you are interested having your student open an account and make deposits at school, please email Dr. Arch at carch@k12.wv.us with "Bank Day" in the subject with your student's name and teacher. An application will be sent home the next day while supplies last so please let me know!


Thank you!

Potomack Apparel Fundraiser Potomack Apparel Fundraiser

A lot of students were asking last year about Potomack gear and it was requested to open the store back up so if you're interested in any Potomack apparel, please see the QR code below. The process is cashless so nothing will be needed in regards to sending money to the school.
