Dodridge County October Spotlight:

At Doddridge County Schools, everything we do is guided by our mission, United to Make a Difference. This isn’t just a phrase; it’s a daily commitment to the students, families, and community. Doddridge County believes that when they work together, they create opportunities that change lives. Our 2025–2026 theme, Mission in Motion, takes that mission a step further. It reflects the idea that the purpose is not static, it moves with them, shows up in the classrooms, the athletics, the community service, and the celebrations of student success. It’s about bringing energy, visibility, and action to the work of preparing learners for bright futures. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🏈 Bulldogs in the Building – Gold Rush Rivalry Game details > All students received a gold Bulldogs In the Building for them to wear during their Route 50 rival football game with Ritchie County High.
