The Beaver County CTC has announced they will remain in Virtual Learning through January 8th and will plan to return to face-to-face instruction on January 11, 2021.
Dear Western Beaver County School District Families,
We have a special announcement for all K-12 students, their families, and teachers/staff – tomorrow, December 17 will be a virtual update of the Official Old-fashioned Snow Day!!! All Western Beaver schools will be closed.
Your assignment is to have FUN at home with your family. Build a snow man, go sled riding, make snow angels, build a snow fort, make hot chocolate, bake cookies, build a fire, and relax! These activities will count towards Physical Ed class, Family and Consumer Science class, STEAM class, Math, ELA/ Reading classes, Science, and Social Studies class for all grades. Please be as creative as possible, as we will be asking you to share some of your experiences.
Forget all of the stress and anxiety we have experienced and just enjoy a proper Snow Day. Please take this opportunity to make those wonderful memories and be prepared to share with your teachers and classmates when we all return to classes on Friday, December 18. We would love to see your pictures!
Sincerely,
Dr. Robert Postupac
