Transportation will be provided and students should report to their bus stop two hours later than normal. Breakfast and lunch will be served at school. Thank you to our bus drivers, transportation staff and maintenance staff for their assistance this morning. Have a great day today!

Good evening Page County Middle School Faculty, Staff and Families, Late this afternoon, Page Middle experienced an issue with its boilers emitting a great deal of smoke. Shenandoah and Stanley Fire Departments responded in support and determined there was no fire. The boilers have been temporarily turned off until a technician can come to the school early tomorrow morning. Given that temperatures are expected to be low tomorrow morning, Page County Middle School will operate on a two-hour delay on Tuesday, December 19, 2023. This two-hour delay is only for Page County Middle School. PCMS faculty and staff will also follow a two-hour delay and additional information will be provided to you in the morning. If for some reason we cannot get the boilers running, we may have to cancel school altogether for PCMS. If that decision needs to be made, we will notify families between 8:30am and 9:00am. Thank you to our fire departments for their assistance today. We apologize for the inconvenience and will continue to communicate with you in the morning. Thank you and have a good evening.
