The West Virginia Department of Human Services (DoHS), Bureau for Family Assistance will begin accepting school clothing allowance applications on Monday, July 20, 2026, for eligible children enrolled in West Virginia schools. All families must apply and may do so online at www.wvpath.wv.gov or by requesting a paper application be mailed to them by contacting their local DOHS office or by calling 1-877-716-1212. Applications will be accepted until August 15, 2026, or until the available funds are fully allocated, whichever occurs first. To be eligible for approval, applications must reach the local office before the program closes.
Each eligible child will receive a $200 benefit that may be used toward the purchase of appropriate school clothing or piece goods for families who sew clothing for their children.
The monthly income for a family of four for the school clothing program may not exceed $3,483. Verification of income for July 2026 must be submitted with the application.
Income Limits for the School Clothing Allowance Program for 2026: (see below)
School clothing allowance program recipients will receive payments on their electronic benefit transfer (EBT) card. This allows for both online transactions and an increased choice of vendors when purchasing school clothing or piece goods. The EBT card will operate like a debit card and can be used at any retailer who accepts EBT cash transactions. Parents or guardians of children in foster care will receive the school clothing allowance benefit as a check.
Those needing to update their address may do so at www.wvpath.wv.gov or by calling DoHS’s Customer Service Center at 1-877-716-1212.

Hi everyone—it’s me, your Attendance Tiger! I’ve had the best two days visiting Mrs. Ellison’s 4th grade class!
From the moment I arrived, I noticed how much fun this group has together while still working hard and showing up ready to learn. It made my stripes proud to see such great attendance and teamwork in action!
I sure will miss spending time (and snapping photos!) with this amazing class. But I know this isn’t goodbye forever—just “see you later!” I’m excited that there will be so many more photo opportunities waiting for them next year at the middle school.
I’ll be keeping a close eye on the Wirt County Middle School Facebook page so I can see all the fun activities and celebrate the awesome academic accomplishments that are ahead. Keep showing up, doing your best, and making me proud!
Remember…every day counts!
—Your Attendance Tiger 🐾

A little rain couldn’t dampen our celebration at Wirt County Primary Center! 🌧️
Our students worked hard to earn LiveSchool points, and they reached their goal. To celebrate their success, they received a bubbly reward they won’t forget!
Thanks to Mr. McCulty and Ms. Richards, the foam machines were running all afternoon under the shelter, with music playing and bubbles flowing. Our students danced, laughed, and made the most of every minute—even with the rainy weather!
What a perfect way to celebrate their achievements and wrap up the school year. The last day of school truly couldn’t have been any more fun! 🫧

Attention Parents and Guardians:
Bus 39 will run early again on Friday, May 22 at 2:00 PM.
Students who ride Bus 39 will be dismissed early, since we do not have enough bus drivers today.
Please plan accordingly to ensure someone is available for student drop-off.
Thank you for your understanding!

Students traded their desks for a day of sunshine and celebration during a Beach Bash to recognize their amazing growth in iReady Reading and Math! 🏖️
From the moment you walked in, it felt like a tropical getaway—complete with colorful leis, cool shades, and smiles as bright as the summer sun. With all of their beachy gear, it looked like a hula dance or a beach ball game might break out at any moment—but these students have definitely been working hard all year long! Their dedication paid off, and this fun-filled celebration was the perfect way to honor their progress. 😎
To top it all off, the class cooled down with a sweet ice cream treat—because nothing says “job well done” quite like a scoop (or two!) on a beach day. The second-to-last day of school couldn’t have been any sweeter! 🍦
Way to go, Mrs. Wheeland’s class!

Our 3rd & 4th graders faced off in an exciting wiffle ball tournament, and it was full of action from start to finish! Some balls were hit 💥, some balls were missed , and some were caught with great plays …but most importantly, EVERYONE had a blast!
The energy, teamwork, and friendly competition made it a home run kind of day!
Check out the winning team proudly relaxing on the bleachers! 🏆

And how do we celebrate a big win? With SILLY STRING… of course!
This morning, our amazing 3rd graders kicked off the second-to-last day of school in the most unforgettable way—by earning the right to Silly String our principal, Mrs. Taylor, in a school assembly after bringing in the MOST donations for the food drive! 🥫
Mrs. Taylor came ready (we’re talking protective gear AND a game plan 😎)…but let’s just say the 3rd graders brought their A-game. Despite her best efforts, she ended up wrapped in a colorful web of gooey, giggly chaos! 🌈
The crowd on the bleachers loved every second (lots of laughs & cheers), while the lucky students with the cans were basically living their best lives. Dreams DO come true, 3rd grade!
What a FUN and messy way to celebrate kindness, teamwork, and giving back to our community
Way to go, 3rd grade! You’ve officially earned the title of Silly String Superstars! 🌟
