School administration is working with law enforcement to investigate the situation, and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken in accordance with district policy.
Spring Mills Middle School and Berkeley County Schools do not tolerate bullying, harassment, discrimination, racism, threats, or other behavior that targets or demeans individuals based on personal characteristics. Every student has the right to learn in an environment where they are respected and valued.
We ask our school community to refrain from sharing, reposting, or amplifying offensive content on social media. Doing so can further impact students and families and make an already difficult situation more challenging for those involved.
This is also an opportunity for families to talk with their students about responsible social media use, respectful online behavior, and the accountability that comes with what we post and share online.
We appreciate your partnership as we work to foster a safe, positive learning environment for our students.
Storm Update: Martinsburg High School Closed Tomorrow
We hope all of our families are safe following today’s storm and severe rainfall.
Our teams have checked all schools and worked to address any issues caused by the weather. Custodians are working this evening to clean up and prepare our schools to open tomorrow.
Unfortunately, Martinsburg High School has experienced significant water intrusion and will need additional time to clean and dry the affected areas. As a result, MaHS will be closed for students tomorrow, Friday, August 28. MaHS staff should report at 8:00 a.m.
Students who attend classes at JRTI, Shepherd University, or BRCTC may attend those classes at their own discretion. There will be no JROTC tomorrow.
Information regarding extracurricular and after-school activities will be communicated directly to students and families by Martinsburg High School.
Thank you for your understanding.
