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.
