While our Kindergarten through 4th grade students at Wirt County Primary Center were enjoying their Super Secret Day basketball game surprise, they weren’t the only ones having a blast! 🎉
Our PreK students had their own special surprise in the gym—dancing, playing, and having the BEST time together! 💃🕺
We’re so happy they were at school to be part of the fun and enjoy their very own Super Secret Day celebration. Smiles, giggles, and happy memories all around! Don't let your child miss a single moment of the fun. Make sure that they attend school regularly!😊🎈


Our Super Secret Surprise Day was a SLAM DUNK! 🎉
The Student Team, made up of enthusiastic 4th grade boys, took on the Teacher Team (aka: whoever had enough energy to survive a basketball game).😆
We had it all:
📊 Student score keepers keeping things official
📣 Teacher cheerleaders bringing the spirit
🐅 Our Tiger mascot cheering on the best Tiger Team ever
👏 And fans breaking in our brand‑new bleachers for the FIRST time!
Fun was had, laughs were shared, and basketball skills were put to use! 💪
Be sure to ask your child who won the showdown at school today! 🏆
GO TIGERS! Students and Teachers alike! 🖤🧡🐅

We’re excited to recognize one of our December Students of the Month, who was absent on the day the group photo was taken, but we couldn’t let the moment pass without celebrating her, too! 🖤🧡
Caroline earned Student of the Month by going above and beyond through kindness, hard work, a positive attitude, and showing Tiger Pride every day. 🌟
We’re so proud of her accomplishments and are glad we can celebrate her now! Congratulations! Keep up the awesome work! 👏

Today we’re excited to shine a spotlight on one of our outstanding educators at Wirt County Primary Center, April Dawson, a dedicated 3rd grade teacher who has been making a difference in our school for over a decade. April’s commitment to her students, her classroom, and our Tiger community embodies everything we value in our staff.
Read her highlight below to find out about the amazing work that she does both inside and outside the classroom! 🐅🖤🧡

Give a big ROAR for Ms. Lowe’s class, who earned the Attendance Tiger this week for their GRRRREAT attendance last week! These Tigers showed up, worked hard, and set an awesome example for our school! 🏆
Regular attendance is so important for a child’s learning. Every day in class helps them grow, stay on track, and build confidence. 📚
That said, we also want to remind everyone that sick kiddos should stay home to rest and recover. 🤒
Keeping our students healthy helps protect everyone and ensures they are ready to learn when they return! 🧡🖤
Way to go, Ms. Lowe’s class! Keep showing that Tiger Pride! 🐅👏

🐟A Fishy Tale from Mrs. Ellison’s 4th Grade Class! 🐟
Once upon a time in Mrs. Ellison’s classroom, there lived a friendly little fish named Doodle. He was small, he was colorful, and he watched over the Tigers as they learned each day. But sadly, Doodle swam on to fishy heaven, leaving an empty spot in the classroom and in the students’ hearts. 🌈💧💕
But don’t worry! This story has a happy ending!
A few kind-hearted students decided their class needed a new finned friend, so they teamed up , pooled their ideas, and surprised the class with a brand new fish named George (plus some beautiful greenery to make his bowl feel like home). 🌿🐟
Moments like these show the true spirit of our Tigers: kindness, community, and caring for one another (and their pets!) 🖤🧡
Welcome to the Primary Center family, George! 🐯🐠


There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, January 19 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Enjoy the long weekend, and we’ll see our Tigers back on Tuesday! 🐅🖤🧡


Today, we’re celebrating someone who has been a cornerstone of our school community for many years—Tina Becker! Her dedication and love for our students make her truly special.
Let’s learn more about her amazing journey and what makes her shine!

Last Friday was Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, and thanks to the initiative of our amazing school secretary, Ashley Romine, Wirt County Primary Center staff and students took time to acknowledge one of our own Tiger parents, Roman Rader, for his service in law enforcement. 👏🐅
We are so appreciative of everything our law enforcement officers do to keep our community and school safe. Your dedication and hard work do not go unnoticed, and we THANK YOU for all that you do! 🖤🧡

Please join us in giving a big Tiger ROAR to Dee Hardbarger, our December Teacher of the Month at Wirt County Primary Center! 👏
Dee is one of the biggest advocates for our students. She is always looking out for their needs and making sure they have what they need to succeed. She’s also the ring leader when it comes to collecting donations for gifts for staff and administrators, spreading kindness and community spirit throughout our school. 🖤🧡
We are proud and thrilled to have Dee (and her legendary T-shirt collection!) as part of our Tiger family. Thank you, Dee, for everything you do to make Wirt County Primary Center an amazing place to learn and grow! 🐅
