Starting Wednesday, Sept. 6! PTO will be selling popcorn most Wednesdays! Follow "Taylor County Middle School PTO" Facebook page for more information!
Our athletes from the hill had a great first week of competition.
Our boys XC team with a 1st place victory at Bridgeport, football team with a 40-0 win over Mountaineer Middle, volleyball team won over Notre Dame and tonight our boys soccer team defeated West Fairmont Middle 2-0.
This is a reminder that tomorrow, September 1, 2023, is a Curriculum Development Day for all Taylor County Schools Staff. Students do not attend. All staff, including staff at the central board of education office, will be attending mandatory trainings and may not be able to answer phone calls throughout the day. Please leave a message if you need to contact the schools, and someone will return your call. Thank you.
We are working to improve the parent drop off process, please pull up and utilize the 4 car drop off approach. We ask that you use the same 4 car method during parent pick up. This will alleviate students crossing through the parking lot. Our student safety is our number one priority. Please be patient as we continue to work through this process.
Attention GHS freshman. Your 8th grade yearbook is at TCMS. All prepaid orders can be picked up Tuesday, August 29th and Wednesday, August 30th from 3:30 to 5:30 in the TCMS Commons.
If you have any questions, please email Julie Poling at jepoling@k12.wv.us
We hope everyone had a great 1st day back on the hill. Just a couple of reminders as we move forward with the school year.
We ask that all parents dropping off and pickup up to come in on the Spring Hill side of the middle school not the dollar general side. Using the map, come in on the blue arrow side and leave on the red arrow side and please yield for buses.
We are also asking that you not enter the back parking lot until at least 3:00 as the students will not be released until 3:06 for parent pick up. All parent pickup and drop off must take place at the back of the school. No students will be permitted to be picked up or dropped off in the front.
We hope this traffic pattern and drop off procedure will make it flow easier for our parents and buses. We look forward to a great year and appreciate your assistance.
TygartValley Trail Dogs Caleb Shaver, Isaac Young, Grant Taylor and Silas Horne participated in their First of the season NICA mountain bike races this weekend at Canaan Valley!! We love to see our students succeeding in and out of school! Great job, guys!
We on the hill are ready to welcome our students for the new school year. We know a new year brings excitement as well as nervousness. Our goal is to make their first day very successful. Our teachers will be ready to answer any questions that your child may have as well as making sure they are getting to where they need to go.
A couple of reminders:
Parent drop off is from 7:15-7:45.
Parent pick up will begin at 3:06.
Please pull around to the back of the building for parent drop off and pick up. Front of the building is for buses only.
We want to wish all the other schools in the county a great first day!
Gooooo Knights!

Important Message from Taylor County Schools:
Starting Friday, August 25, 2023, the following procedural change will go into effect: All schools will open to receive student arrival no earlier than 7:15 a.m., as this will be the earliest that students will be allowed to enter any school building. Parents/guardians are asked to plan not to drop off students prior to this time and honor the bus lanes specifically for buses only and parent/guardian student drop off lanes. This change is being made to help minimize traffic congestion at all locations. We appreciate your cooperation. (This change will not affect school/class instructional start times at any location.)
-Dr. John Stallings, Superintendent
