West Virginia Board of Education Greenlights High School Consolidation Plans

CHARLESTON — In a significant decision, the West Virginia Board of Education has approved consolidation plans for several high schools, including those in Paden City and Hundred, despite strong opposition from community members in Wetzel County. Residents made the journey to Charleston to voice their concerns and advocate against the proposed changes, emphasizing the potential negative impacts on local education and community identity.

During the board's monthly meeting, which took place at the Department of Education offices, officials also reviewed requests from Wood, Clay, and Preston counties, ultimately approving all proposals. The consolidation aims to streamline resources and improve educational opportunities, but critics argue that it may lead to larger class sizes and reduced access to extracurricular activities.

As the board moves forward with these plans, the community's response remains a focal point, highlighting the ongoing debate over educational reform and local governance in West Virginia.
