Good Evening. Please mark your calendar for March 23, 2023, from 5 to 7 p.m. for the Jackson County Schools’ STEM Night at Ripley Elementary School. This is a hands-on event for all Jackson County elementary students in kindergarten through 5th grade. This is a wonderful opportunity for your children to experience Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math from experts in their respective fields. As the above date approaches, we will send out more details regarding this event.
Thank you, and have a wonderful evening.
Mrs. Hinzman brings more learning to the hallways. Prefixes and suffixes decorate the lockers.
So proud of our Gilmore kids!!! Russell, Ayden, and Ariana all received first place in the county science fair last night!!!! ❤❤
Just a reminder as we have entered into the 2nd semester that Attendance Matters. If your child has to miss school, please make sure you send an excuse to the school. If you have any questions about your child's attendance, please call us at 304 273 3511
Gilmore's Science Fair was a huge success. Families had an opportunity to view the projects 🙂 We will have four entries in the county fair. Those students are Ariana Snider, Ayden Lott, Russell Shockey, and Sabrina Gregorich.
We would like to wish all our Gilmore families a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !!
We will be collecting nonperishable food items on Tuesday of next week. The donations will be distributed to Adopt a Family and our local food pantry.
Next week Gilmore students and staff will begin the 12 days of Christmas. Information was sent home this week.
We hope that everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving. Stay safe and enjoy time with your family.

Good afternoon. Unfortunately, Gilmore Elementary School will be dismissed at 1:00 p.m. today. This morning, we had a waterline break that shut off the water to the school. After fixing the line, the contractor found two more leaks and informed us that the repair would take two to three more hours. At this time, Gilmore Elementary has no water and cannot flush toilets properly. Our buses will begin their runs around 1:00 p.m. Parents are welcome to come to the school and sign their child or children out at any time. Also, certain staff members will be at the school for the rest of the day. If you have any questions, please contact the Central Office at 304-372-7300 or Gilmore Elementary at 304-273-3511. I truly apologize for this inconvenience.
Good evening. Students in grades 4-9 and 12 who took the WVGSA and SAT last spring will be receiving a video link to a special score report video this evening. These emails will be sent out to the child’s school email address. If you have trouble accessing that email account, please contact your child’s school. Thank you and have a wonderful weekend.
