Next week, we will be releasing School Learning Environment Survey links provided by the WV Department of Education. The surveys are used to help make changes in our school where needed to ensure a positive and supportive place for children to learn and employees to work.
The links below are to PDF versions of the surveys, so you can see how they work together to help determine the climate at a school. Participation is voluntary. Parents have been given the option to not have their child/children participate. Let your child's teacher know if you DO NOT want your child to participate. Another form can be sent home. We are keeping a list. Children who participate will have the choice as to which questions they want to answer.
To review the questions on each survey, please click each link below. Paper copies of these surveys are in our office for review. We hope that you choose to participate as we need your valuable input to make our school the best place to be for our students and staff!

In honor of Read Across America Day, students are invited to dress as their favorite character (remember to be school appropriate J ) and bring their favorite book on March 1, 2024.
On Friday, March 1 at 2:15, all students will drop everything and read one of their favorite books with a friend in their class.
Students will also be invited to stop by the share shelf in the hallway and take home any books they may want.
Wirt County Primary Center will soon be participating in the WV Department of Education's School Learning Environment Survey Program. If you DO NOT want your 3rd or 4th grader to participate, then please sign and send back the form that will be coming home with your 3rd & 4th graders. No other grades at the elementary level participate in the survey. The only identifiable information that the student shares is on the first question where all of our students will share the code for our school and then their grade, age and gender. The questions on the survey are shared in images on this post.
