*We are a little late on Counselor's week due to the winter storm, but never too late to shout out these two amazing ladies. Happy Belated Counselor's Week to Ms. Chandler and Mrs. Brower.
This is a reminder that classes will resume at the normal time on February 9 for Water Valley School District.
Bus routes will run as normal with the exception of County Roads 15, 94, and 262. Students who live on these roads may be picked up and dropped off at the intersection of those roads and County Road 95. A parent or approved adult must be present at the stop. We will resume those routes as soon as possible. Buses traveling county routes that are operating will use an abundance of caution while navigating road conditions, which may cause some routes to run slightly behind schedule.
We understand that some families may still be without basic amenities. If this is your situation, please email your excuse to outage@wvsdschools.com and include your child’s name. These days will be excused.
As we begin this week, our focus will not be on academics. If grades are given, no grade that lowers a student’s average will count. There will be no homework. Our priority is the well-being of our students. Time will be spent talking through what we experienced over the last two weeks.
We will recognize the good we witnessed — neighbors helping neighbors, volunteers stepping up, outside groups coming in to support the community, and the tireless work of first responders and utility workers who helped restore safety and services. We will also use this as a teachable moment about preparedness, selfless service, and compassion.
We are thankful to have our students back with us and look forward to supporting them as we move forward together.
We are so grateful for the compassion and generosity of Mrs. Holly Guarr Canup (WVHS Class of 89) and the First Baptist Church in Huntsville, Alabama. Mrs. Canup and the Median Adult Ministry delivered large quantities of personal hygiene products, snack packs, kits, and water for students in the WVSD. Their youth group was a huge part of this thoughtful project.
At a time when many are facing uncertainty and hardship, your support is a powerful reminder of compassion and community. We are deeply grateful for your thoughtfulness and for the care you have shown.

After careful consideration, Water Valley School District will be closed for the remainder of this week. Our administrative team reviewed all factors in making this decision, including bus route conditions, food deliveries, and the number of staff and students who are still without power.
Teachers and staff will report on Friday at 8:00 a.m. for a professional day.
Students will return at the regular time on Monday, February 9. Bus routes will run, and we will work to determine alternate pickup and drop-off locations where possible.
We understand that many families may still be without basic amenities. If your household is still affected on Monday, please email an excuse to outage@wvsdschools.com so we can review the situation.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
