On behalf of Superintendent Hudson and the Putnam Board of Education, Happy WV School Service Personnel Day!
PCS would like to thank our dedicated & compassionate school service professionals for all they do to help serve & support students. School service personnel are involved in nearly every aspect of education, from maintaining buildings and grounds, preparing and serving meals, keeping school facilities clean, assisting in the classroom, providing safe transportation, and many other specialized services.
Undoubtedly, our Putnam County School Service Professionals are instrumental in the education of all students. We are honored and grateful to have you all a part of our PCS Team.

On behalf of Putnam County Schools, Superintendent John Hudson, and the Putnam Board of Education, we wish our high school juniors the best of luck tomorrow during the SAT School Day test!
The SAT is a nationally recognized college and career-readiness assessment and allows students the opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and skills. PCS students have consistently performed well, scoring higher than the state and national average. This accomplishment reflects not only our students' hard work and dedication but also our Putnam educators, school staff, communities, and families. While seeing our students perform well on the SAT is rewarding, it is also important to remember that test scores measure academic achievement and do not define a student's potential or worth. So, as we support our juniors tomorrow during testing, we hope you will join us in collective encouragement.
Good luck, Juniors! You've got this!
Good Luck to Winfield High School’s Academic Showdown Team as they compete for a State Championship Title today in Charleston at the WVDE’s 2023 Academic Showdown! Let’s Go, Gens! 👏📚💚 #PutnamProud
