WES Attendance Spirit Week- September 8-11. Every Student Matters. Every DAY Counts!
Weirton Elementary School students who cannot make it to school due to buses not running will be marked as an excused absence. Our phone lines are not working at this time. Please email Monica Martich (monica.pennacchio@k12.wv.us) for any questions or concerns. Thank you!

🖤❤️Hancock County Schools are joining together in the month of September to collect tabs for the Ronald McDonald House.
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
Ronald McDonald House pull tab program turns aluminum tabs from soda, soup, and pet food cans into money to help families of sick children. This is the simplest gesture to help families in need for those unexpected emergencies and need to stay at a home away from home. These tabs help go towards the payment to house a family in those crucial times. For many families, this will be super easy if it's something they already have at their house. We plan to collect vigorously the entire month of September. Please send in tabs with your child to turn into their homeroom teacher! ❤️🖤
