Get a head start on your back to school paperwork! The school website now has our digital enrollment packet, allowing you to finish most of the first day paperwork before the first day. Additionally, the digital Acceptable Use Policy form is available - students with no previous AUP violations may pick up their devices at Open House with a completed AUP! Our parking application is also live, including for seniors applying to paint their spots. All these forms are available at our back to school hub at wirtcountyschools.com/o/wchs. Click on the link from the homepage to access all the forms.
Taking a college course? WVU-Parkersburg will be at the school on Friday, August 14, 2026 at 1:00 pm to help students log in and check their blackboard accounts. This is the online platform that will be used for the dual credit courses through WVU-Parkersburg.
