Due to inclement weather and missed instructional days, the grade reporting period for Wood County Schools has been adjusted. Updated dates for the period ending date, report card issue date, and other relevant information can be found at the following link: https://www.woodcountyschoolswv.com/page/grade-periods-and-report-card-dates.

Correction: The January 13 edition of the *Parkersburg News & Sentinel* incorrectly stated that Wood County Schools would be adding an additional 30 minutes to the school day in relation to "equivalency time" for days missed due to inclement weather. In fact, Wood County Schools already incorporates 30 extra minutes into its regular school day, which can be used to account for missed instructional time. To be clear, Wood County Schools will not be adding 30 minutes to the end of any school day.
