This is a powerpoint made by Mrs. Hackett's first grade class at Buckhannon Academy Elementray School. We have been studying our community in Social Studies. The students picked one place that they loved in Upshur County and they had to create a slide.  They typed the text, inserted pictures and changed the layout and design. They really enjoyed doing thias project. Technology is such an important thing for children to learn how to use. You can never start them too early. Thank you for allowing us to share with you.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Amy Hackett
1st grade at Buckhannon Academy Elementary School

The BU Chamber Business Showcase was a huge success at WV Wesleyan College.  Over 600 families were in attendance and many of them enjoyed the complimentary samples and information provieded.  We appreciate everyone who participated in this great event.

We had a tremendous turnout for our regular Chamber meeting.  Aladdin catered a delicous home-style cooked meal with all the fixings to include, fresh salad, Baked Swiss Steak, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy and beans.  Several desserts were offered and devoured by those in attendance.  Attendance is greatly increased and only a few seats were available.  The WVWC S.I.F.E team presented and gave an excellent presentation on their goals and objectives.  WVWC, Alissa Lively was the "Get to Know Your Neighbor" and provided a beautiful WVWC drawing as the door prize, which was won by one of the S.I.F.E. team members.
