We just wrapped up our second day of outdoor recreation camp at North Bend. We aren’t sure who’s having more fun… students or teachers! 😎 Some activities students have participated in so far include creek critters🪲, tie dye🎨, archery🏹, boating🚣♂️, tracks and scat🐾, rock painting🪨 and swimming🏊♀️. We’ve had our highest number in attendance this year with 130 students! This camp is so much fun for everyone. We can’t wait for the next 6 days!
This year’s summer academy has been full of the joy of learning. Thanks to all the parents that sent these great children to our summer academy. We have enjoyed working with them.
It’s Independence Day! Have a wonderful holiday!

Middle school students at the summer academy are having fun and learning. They’ve learned that germs are everywhere so good hand washing is ever so important. I expect we’ll see some hands getting washed much more often. They then used those clean hands for some creativity with building and shirt tie dying.
Ritchie County students involved in the summer learning academy had a wonderful trip to Discovery World in Parkersburg on Tuesday. What a great facility to have so close to us. Kids of all ages enjoyed the day.
The Ritchie County Board of Education hosted the Ritchie County High School 4 x 400 relay team Monday evening. Congratulations to this team for thier first place finish in the 4 x 400 relay at the state track meet.
