As we welcome River to Potomack, our focus will be on attendance for her arrival. The attendance for each class in each grade level that shows the most improvement the week before her arrival (December 9 to 13) will have their photo taken with our newest friend at her graduation ceremony.

In the past, families have used Educational Leave ("Leave of Educational Value") for things like trips or 4-H activities. That is no longer allowed under the new law.

Richard's football team went to Charleston where they won the championship game and are ranked the number one 9u football team in the state of WV! They will also be heading to nationals in the spring!

Best of luck to you and your team, Richard! 🦅

Kayleigh has been working hard on and off the field! Not only did she get the spirit stick for her work ethic and showing Cardinal pride while cheering for Jr Cardinals Pony, but she got Honor Roll and the S.O.A.R. award! We couldn't be more proud of the young lady she is and determination she shows!

Keep up the great work, Kayleigh! 🦅

Xander received MVP award for his spring season of baseball!! He won this by a landslide with the team and parents both voting!! He is a pitcher for martinsburg little league as well as 2nd baseman and shortstop. Xander shows up and puts in the work to keep learning. He works hard everyday to get better on the field!!! He's a great team leader and supports all of his fellow teamates!!

Way to be a leader, Xander! 🦅

Potomack Eagles, we want to recognize you! We love to recognize academic achievements at school, but we know our students are accomplishing amazing things outside of school too! If your student has a notable achievement in sports, arts or other areas throughout the year, please fill out the form below. If you are unable to access the link, please e-mail Mrs. Steshoski with a brief description of the achievement and a photo. We will be spotlighting these achievements on our social media page throughout the year.

Updated:

PTO MEETING CANCELLED 12/11/24. Due to the Holiday Shop being such a great success for our Eagles, resetting for the next day will interfere with our meeting. Secure Volunteers are still needed: https://signup.com/go/VdFvMfJ

PTO is not a 4 letter word! Your PTO met for the first time & made this year’s focus “fulfilling student and teacher needs.” We invite our entire Potomack Intermediate community to join us for meetings in the cafeteria on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 4pm. Please follow Potomack Intermediate PTO’s Facebook page & watch Dojo messages for ways you can help this year. It isn't necessary to be an “official” PTO member to help us succeed in fulfilling student and teacher needs. Eagles SOAR!
