Glow Dance Donations Needed!
We are continuing our tradition of the Mid-Year Diagnostic Growth Glow Dance at the end of February!
We are asking for donations of snap-and-glow BRACELETS ONLY. Last year, our students earned an amazing 3,073 bracelets, and we’re hoping to beat that number this year!
The more growth students show, the more bracelets they receive!
Please drop off donations in the front office anytime between now and February 20th.
Thank you for helping us celebrate student growth in a bright and fun way! 💛💙

Wood County Schools will be back in session today and operating as normal, with students attending classes in person and following regular schedules. Please note that WCHS TV Station incorrectly listed Wood County Schools as Code NTID on their website; this information is not accurate.
During today’s Code NTID day, meal boxes are available for Wood County Schools students. Families may pick up meal boxes at the Central Office from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. For directions to the Central Office, please visit: https://www.woodcountyschoolswv.com/page/visit We’re happy to help ensure students have access to meals today.
Good morning, we will be having our special PTO meeting as planned this evening. Walkabout and hot chocolate will begin at 5 PM with a movie in the library to follow from 5:30-6:30 while parents attend the PTO meeting in the cafeteria. Additionally, please remember to complete your NTI assignments for Day 1. Reach out on Rooms or call the school if you need assistance. Attendance is based on assignment completion, with students having three instructional days (including the NTI day) to submit their work.
Dear parents and guardians: Wood County Schools will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday, December 16, and will operate under a Code NTID. To learn more about Code NTID, please visit https://www.woodcountyschoolswv.com/ntid
Good afternoon Franklin Elementary Staff and Families,
Our Christmas Program has been re-scheduled to Thursday, December 18th at 9:30. Grade levels will sing songs they have been practicing with their music teacher, Ms. Ticer. We will look to have as much parking available as possible in the main lot for parents and guardians. Please be respectful as to not park in a manner that blocks an individual from leaving. Attendance matters, and it is advised that students are not signed out early after the program unless necessary. Thank you! --Ryan.

Good evening Falcon families! This is a reminder that starting tomorrow, we will have a Santa Shop until Friday for students who bring money to purchase gifts; they will also have time next week in their classes to make cards to along with the gifts if they'd like. Also, you or your child may begin regularly seeing an officer at school. This is a collaboration between WCS and the Parkersburg Police Department to have and SRO presence at schools that did not previously have one. The purpose is to ensure safety and to be a positive role model for our students!
Update: Tuesday, December 2, 2025, Wood County Schools will be closed, Code A.
Wood County Schools will be on a two-hour delay this morning, Tuesday, December 2. Please stay tuned for updates.
CONGRATULATIONS to Miayah and Kylee, who were this week's SOAR Students of the week!

❄️ Join Us for a Magical Winter Evening! ❄️
As part of our December 16 PTO Meeting, we’re inviting all Franklin families to kick off the evening with a Winter Wonderland Walkthrough at 5:00 PM!
Come enjoy the sparkle of the season with hot chocolate, cookies, and festive decorations.
After the walkthrough, parents and guardians are encouraged to stay for the PTO meeting at 5:30 PM, while children cozy up in the library for a special movie time.
✨ We can’t wait to celebrate the season with you! ✨
Franklin Parents and Guardians,
Fliers will be coming home soon with information about our Santa Shop, which will be open December 3–5. To help our staff and volunteers support each student, please make sure your child has a shopping list of who they are shopping for.
We also ask that you send their money and list in a sealed envelope or ziplock bag clearly labeled with their name. This helps prevent items from getting misplaced on the way to class and ensures a smooth shopping experience for everyone.
Thank you for your support in making this event special for our students! 🎁
Volunteers are needed for our Santa Shop! See attached flier for information. Contact the school to volunteer.
New NTID Days (Non-Traditional Instructional Day) may be used for winter weather. Students complete work at home (packets for elementary, Schoology for grades 3 - 12). Attendance = work turned in. Families notified via WCS app, calls, website & social media. Meal boxes available. Learn more: https://woodcountyschoolswv.com/ntid
