Harrison County Board of Education

Reminder: Schools will be closed on Monday in observance of Labor Day. Enjoy the long weekend, and we'll see everyone back on Tuesday!

Robert C. Byrd High School will have a 3-hour early dismissal on Friday, September 11, 2026.

This early dismissal is necessary to allow construction crews to safely install steel beams as part of the ongoing construction of the new cafeteria addition. The adjusted dismissal time will help ensure the safety of our students, staff, and construction personnel while this important work is completed.

Please note that this 3-hour early dismissal applies only to Robert C. Byrd High School. All other schools will operate on their regularly scheduled dismissal times.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we continue to make improvements to our school facilities.

REMINDER

• Friday, September 11, 2026

• At high school sporting events, both middle and elementary students must be accompanied by an adult.
