🎶 Congratulations to Natalia Davis, Harper Valasek, and Eva Burns on being selected to represent JCS at this year's WV All-State Children's Chorus! They spent several months learning nine musical selections for the event - three of which were in a foreign language! Then they joined fellow JCS students in traveling to Charleston this weekend to showcase their talent with other West Virginia choral students. Read more here 👉 https://bit.ly/3T2TBUR 🎵
ATTENTION: The boil water notice for Charles Town and Ranson will extend through Thursday, 3/9. JCS will again provide bottled water for Washington High, Charles Town Middle, Wright Denny Intermediate, OLC, and Ranson Elementary Schools. We encourage anyone who can safely bring water from home to do so again. Thank you to our incredible staff in the JCS Maintenance Department, who worked quickly to provide schools with water today and made sure they would be ready for Thursday.
A BIG thank you to the JCS Maintenance Department for delivering over 3,000 bottles of water to CTMS this morning due to the boil water notice. Students will have access to water bottles in each class as well as the cafeteria during lunch.
March 8, 2023: In response to the boil water notice issued for Charles Town and Ranson water customers, Jefferson County Schools will provide bottled water for Washington High School, Charles Town Middle School, Wright Denny Intermediate School, Ranson Elementary School, and the OLC.

Students in Ms. Pulsifer's classes recently took part in two exciting science labs! First, they earned an extra "star" for their impressive work in a starfish dissection lab as they identified internal and external characteristics of the sea creatures. Next, student-made density towers demonstrated how different substances interact… or not. Labs like these definitely make learning fun!
Students at Driswood Elementary celebrated Black History Month with a schoolwide assembly featuring the Charles Town Middle School choir, under the direction of music teacher Lindsay Dove, accompanied by award-winning gospel composer, singer, and songwriter Maharold Peoples, Jr. The special guests performed two songs of cultural and historical significance, including "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Thanks to Mr. Peoples and CTMS students for this musical treat!
