Summer Enrollment Procedures for Grafton High School
📢 IMPORTANT - Taylor County Schools Summer iPad Reminder

We have received many questions regarding iPads for students enrolled in summer coursework.

As previously shared by the TCS Technology Department, all student devices were collected at the end of the school year and are currently being held while a new statewide web content filter required by the West Virginia Department of Education is implemented.

Due to federal E-Rate and CIPA requirements, student devices cannot be distributed until the approved content filter is fully installed and active.

At this time, the TCS Technology Department is still awaiting additional information regarding installation, deployment, and training before a timeline for iPad distribution can be announced.

Students who have access to a personal device are encouraged to use it for summer coursework until school-issued devices become available.

We understand the importance of device access and will share updates as soon as more information becomes available, including pickup details for students enrolled in summer classes.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support.

Today, the Grafton High School staff gathered to celebrate the end of another great school year and honor the retirement of one of our own, Mrs. Duretha Mayle. 💙💛🐾 Mrs. Mayle has dedicated 38 years to education, including 24 years in Taylor County and 17 years at GHS. Her impact on our students, staff, and community has been immeasurable, and she will be greatly missed. Thank you, Mrs. Mayle, for your years of service, dedication, and commitment to our Bearcat Family. We wish you all the best in your retirement! 🎉 We would also like to thank our entire GHS staff for their hard work throughout the year, and a special thank you to Eva Robinson and Laurie McDaniel for coordinating today's celebration.

A Special Night with Our Spanish Students 🚢✨ Yesterday, the Spanish classes from Grafton High School went to Pittsburgh for a special field trip. We visited Point State Park, PPG Plaza, and rode the Duquesne Incline. Later, we went to the Gateway Clipper for Spanish Night. Our students enjoyed a Hispanic dinner with rice and beans, empanadas, and cornbread. They also enjoyed the music and participated in a trivia competition. We were very proud that Sophia Austin represented our students in the trivia competition. The students also had a beautiful time seeing the city of Pittsburgh from the top of the boat. It was so nice to see them relaxing, spending time with their friends, and making special memories together. We also had the opportunity to celebrate Morgan Ketterman’s birthday, which made the night even more special. 🎉 We are very proud of how well our students represented Grafton High School. Thank you to our chaperones, parents, administration, and everyone who helped make this trip possible. ❤️
