Parents,
We have been made aware of a message that was sent to parents that appears to be from Blennerhassett Middle School regarding attendance. This inappropriate message did not come from Blennerhasset Middle or Wood County Schools. We apologize to the parents who received this message and are working to correct the issue. Thank you for your understanding!

Good Afternoon!
With the Springlike weather coming our way, I wanted to remind students and parents about our Blennerhassett Middle School dress code expectations. Tank tops, crop tops, short shorts (where the pockets are longer than the shorts) or shorts/jeans with excessive holes in them are not permitted. Thank you for helping to ensure your child comes to school dressed appropriately each day.

Good Afternoon,
This is reminder to all students and parents that costumes are not permitted to be worn during the school day or at extracurricular events at Blennerhassett Middle School. Costumes not only pose a safety concern for our students and staff but also disrupt the educational process. We appreciate your support and understanding in this matter. ~ Mrs. Arthur
