Taylor County Schools

Upon visiting any Taylor County School, guests are required to enter a secure area for further identification before being granted any access to the interior part of the school building. Admittance to this area is monitored by office and administrative staff. Our tech team created an informational video to show visitors this procedure. https://youtu.be/5LaNcQO_I-k

The threat has been mitigated and all involved in the investigation are confident our schools and surrounding communities are safe. We will continue to monitor the safety of our staff and students daily to ensure we provide a safe learning environment for all. We remind all that if you see something be sure to say something to school administrators or local law enforcement. Together we can make a difference.

Over the weekend, Taylor County School administrators were alerted of a school threat made toward Grafton High School. Law enforcement was immediately alerted, and is conducting an investigation. As a result, schools throughout the county will have an increased presence of law enforcement on Monday, February 13, 2023, and longer if deemed necessary. Grafton Police Department, the Taylor County Sheriff’s Department, the West Virginia State Police, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are monitoring all aspects of this investigation. We believe there is no immediate concern for our schools and surrounding communities, and students should report for a normal day of instruction on Monday. Our primary concern is the safety of our children, and all efforts are underway to ensure school buildings and their surrounding campuses are protected. Updates will be provided as more information is available.

Due to an issue with the kitchen at West Taylor Elementary School, students at West Taylor will be dismissed starting at 9:45am today. Buses will be running their normal routes. If parents wish to pick up their students, they may do so.
