Message from the Superintendent- March 5th, 2025:
Today, we experienced a brief need for a precautionary code yellow at our Grafton High School. Almost as soon as it was called, the situation was resolved. All students and staff remained safe throughout that brief situation and have resumed normal operations.
Attention Class of 2025: The McCauley Scholarship is now available on the Class of 2025 TEAMS. Please be sure to have completed applications submitted to Mrs. Himes by 3/14.

Prom Announcement!
Tickets for Thursday's Regional Girls Basketball game are now available. Come out and support our Lady Cats! The WVSSAC asks that all tickets be purchased online in advance. LINK BELOW. Because it is a regional game, everyone must pay except for those with a WVSSAC Coaches Card. Therefore, students and senior citizens must pay for this game. WVSSAC receives all profits from the gate. See you at the game! https://gofan.co/event/3343703?schoolId=WVSSAC
What a fun day. Congrats TCMS on the win. We still love our Bearcats!
Thank you to CIS coordinators from both schools for organizing this - Mrs. Jen Eskridge and Mrs. Val Jones. Thank you to Mrs. Hines for organizing the shirt orders.
See you next year TCMS!
