Wythe County Broadband Internet Survey
The Board of Supervisors recently approved the funding for a Broadband survey/study for Wythe County. This will allow Wythe County Public Schools to gain valuable data to present to state and federal funding sources to hopefully provide high speed, reliable internet to the many under served households in Wythe County.

WCPS Inclement Weather Information
As winter weather approaches, WCPS will continue to monitor safety conditions for our students and staff. At times, we will have traditional “snow days”. We feel it is important not to take the magic of a “snow day”
away so our children have something time-honored to remain in their lives. But there maybe times, especially when we can predict imminent weather coming, where we will have to utilize digital learning. This option may be used
when we have missed an excessive amount of days and in-person
learning is not feasible due to inclement weather.
