This is a reminder from Braxton County Schools that all students entering 12th grade will need to provide a copy of their Meningitis immunization record before school starts. This record may be dropped off at the Braxton County Board of Education Office or they may be faxed to Braxton County High School at 304-765-7976. State law states students cannot attend school on the first day without this immunization proof. Seniors should also provide a copy of their latest check-up and dental exam, but these are not required by law for attendance on the first day of school.
Welcome to the Team!
At the June 28, 2023 Special Board of Education Meeting Dr. Donna Burge-Tetrick was sworn in by the Honorable Judge Richard Facemire as the next Superintendent of Braxton County Schools. Welcome, Dr. Tetrick!
