2. Learning is Our Priority
Our ultimate goal is to create a 21st century learn-
ing community where every person in our school
family, regardless of their role, works toward student
success.Whether a custodian,secretary,cook,teacher,
administrator, volunteer, parent or grandparent, we
understand that caring adults working together can
make a positive difference in the lives of children.
It’s Never Too Late for
a Second Chance
Sometimes, life can present challenges that lead stu-
dents to believe they are better off dropping out of
school.Once they enter the“real world”with no degree,
they often discover that finding work is difficult, and
when they do secure employment, wages are often low.
Cabell County Schools is passionate about keeping
studentsinschooland—if studentsdodecidetoleave—
welcoming them back. Our counselors, attendance
workers,teachersandadministratorsworktogetherwith
community organizations and our own Cabell County
Career Technology Center to find the most appropriate
path toward traditional graduation or toward earning a
General Equivalency Diploma. Each year, a Dropout
Reentry workshop is conducted and anyone interested
in returning to school is invited to attend, regardless of
how many years they have been away.

long learners and responsible citizens.”

Our middle school teachers work together in grade-
level teams to plan lessons and activities cooperatively,
helping them better meet the instructional and devel-
opmental needs of students.
In our high schools, the transition from middle school
is eased with our Freshman Academy. Like the middle
schools, teachers share a group of grade-level students
and work together to plan lessons and activities.
High school students in Cabell County have many
options when it comes to selecting a path they would
like to pursue toward graduation. The district offers
dual credit and advanced placement classes,and many
students in these classes are able to earn hours toward

program, career academies have been established
that allow a student with a particular career interest
to take core classes customized to complement that
interest area. Academies include health occupations,
fine arts, child care and teaching, engineering, busi-
ness and marketing, civil service and construction.
The arts and physical education serve an important role
in student development, and Cabell County Schools is

million construction project that, with support of the
West Virginia School Building Authority, resulted in
two new elementary schools and three new middle
schools. These, in addition to two modern high
schools, two more recently built elementary schools,
a middle school currently under construction and our
other well-maintained facilities, provide safe, secure
learning environments for our students and staff.

The power of
public education cannot be
underestimated. As an essential part of
the American experience, public schools empower
students with the knowledge they need to be productive
citizens. Our schools teach children to become leaders, to
be of strong character and to work to ensure the continued
strength of our great democracy. For those living in poverty or
who might otherwise be cast aside or left behind, a quality education
can help break the shackles of their situations and help them provide
the resources they and their families will need throughout their lives.
At Cabell County Schools, we take the responsibility for
providing a quality education seriously. Through a rigorous
curriculum that is relevant to their lives, we’re reaching
students on their individual levels and supporting
their growth through organized structures
that help build strong relationships.
