Winter weather is coming! Be sure to download our WCPS app and turn on notifications to receive push notifications of any delays/closings.
Additionally, if your child is enrolled in a WCPS school, you should be getting delay/closure robocalls. If you're not receiving them, contact your child's school.



Our hearts are heavy at this time as we mourn the loss of our dear friend and colleague, Mrs. Sara Thompson. Mrs. Thompson was a longtime Worcester County Public Schools MD Board of Education member, past President of the Board of Education, a standout member of the Town of Berlin Maryland, and a substitute teacher, member of the second graduating class, and one of the biggest cheerleaders at Stephen Decatur High School. Our sincerest condolences extend to her family and friends and all of #DecaturNation. We love you Miss Sara! #OnceASeahawkAlwaysASeahawk
