Where to get Kanawha County school calendar dates and event updates
The official Open KCS Calendar Page is the safest starting point for school date planning. The calendar page includes instructions for viewing and printing the calendar, including changing print scale from default to fit to paper when printing.
For events, use the official Open KCS Events Page. The Events page includes a downloadable calendar option and year selector, with list and calendar views. It can show board meetings, school dates, holidays, professional learning days, parent-teacher conference items, and other district events.
Do not plan only from a search snippet or old saved calendar. Kanawha County school schedules can change due to weather closures, waiver decisions, district updates, board action, Election Day, professional learning days, school-level events, and emergency notices.
📅 District calendar
Use the official Calendar page for the district calendar and print-friendly calendar instructions.
🗓️ Events page
Use Events for board meeting listings, no-school days, holidays, school dates, and year filters.

Weather, board action, and district notices can change school operations after a calendar is downloaded.
Kanawha County BOE office address, phone and visit planning
The district footer lists Kanawha County Schools at 200 Elizabeth Street, Charleston, WV 25311. The listed phone number is 304-348-7770. This address is also used in board agenda documents for central office and Board of Education Building references.
Do not assume the central office handles every student issue by walk-in. Records requests, transportation issues, Schoology access, out-of-area transfer forms, beginning-of-year forms, board meetings, and school-specific concerns can have separate links or procedures.
For attendance, classroom concerns, school-level events, student pickup, grade-level questions, counselor help, or school-specific communication, start with the student’s school. Use the central office for district-level routing or when an official KCS page directs you there.

Kanawha County board meetings, agendas, meeting dates and official documents
The official Open Board of Education Page is the main starting point for board-related information. The district also maintains document sections for Board Agendas, 2025-2026 KCS Board Meeting Dates, Board Minutes, Board Audio, Personnel Enclosures, and related board materials.
A January 15, 2026 regular session agenda lists the Kanawha County Board of Education meeting at the Central Office, 200 Elizabeth Street, Charleston, WV 25311-2119. That agenda also states that listed meetings are generally held in the Board of Education Building at 200 Elizabeth Street unless otherwise indicated.
Meeting locations can have exceptions. The KCS Events page includes examples of board events at 200 Elizabeth Street and other locations such as the Edison Staff Development Center in South Charleston. Always open the current event listing or agenda before attending.
Open the Board of Education page
Start with the official KCS Board of Education page or Board Agendas document section.
Check the current agenda
Use current agendas for meeting date, time, location, livestream details, delegations, and agenda items.
Confirm the location
Most meetings may be at 200 Elizabeth Street, but events and agendas can list another location.
Review minutes or audio later
Use Board Minutes and Board Audio for official records after meetings are posted.
Meeting caution: Dates, times, livestream links, agenda documents, public-comment procedures, and locations can change. Check the current official posting before attending or sharing meeting details.
Livestream, delegations, public comments, minutes and board audio
KCS board agendas may include a livestream link for public access. For example, the January 15, 2026 regular session agenda included instructions to access the meeting livestream through the KCS live stream page.
That agenda also included a Delegations section explaining that addressing the Board during delegations gives the public the opportunity to respectfully speak about a topic of concern, and that the Board takes comments under advisement and may discuss concerns at a future meeting.
If you want to speak, listen, watch, or verify board action, use the current agenda and official documents. The agenda tells you what is scheduled; the livestream or audio helps with access; minutes provide the official record after approval and posting.

Kanawha County records requests, transcripts and student information
The KCS top navigation includes a Open Request Records Page link. The records page text refers to ways to order official transcript, immunization records, and special education information, and notes that it is not for diplomas.
Records are sensitive. Do not submit student IDs, transcripts, immunization records, special education records, identity documents, or payment information through unofficial websites. Start from the official KCS Request Records link and follow the district-linked process.
For current student issues, contact the school office or counselor first. For former student transcript or record questions, use the official records request path rather than emailing random staff or using third-party search results.
🎓 Transcript requests
Use the official Request Records page before ordering transcripts or school records.
💉 Immunization records
The records page references immunization record requests through the official process.
♿ Special education information
Use district-linked records processes for special education information requests.
🔐 Privacy warning
Do not upload private student records to unofficial pages or search-result websites.
Beginning-of-year forms, out-of-area transfer requests and student packets
KCS quick links include Open Beginning of the Year Forms. The packet page notes that a child must already be enrolled in Kanawha County Schools before creating an account and that the process does not enroll the child.
The homepage quick links also include a 2026-2027 out-of-area transfer link. Out-of-area transfer forms may use a district-linked form platform. Families should start from the official KCS homepage or Out of Area Transfer Requests page and not from an old shared link.
Because transfer and yearly-form processes can change by school year, check the current KCS page before creating an account, submitting forms, or assuming that last year’s form is still valid.
📝 Beginning-of-year packet
Use the official packet page for yearly student forms when the district opens the process.
✅ Already enrolled note
The packet page says the child must already be enrolled before creating an account.
🔁 Out-of-area transfer
Use the official 2026-2027 out-of-area transfer link or the district transfer page.
⚠️ School-year caution
Forms can change by year. Do not submit an old packet or outdated transfer link.
Transportation, bus changes, EZ A2B and school travel questions
Use the official Open Transportation Page for KCS bus and transportation resources. The district homepage also includes a Bus Changes quick link for current bus changes and notices.
The Transportation page includes references to the EZ A2B bus tracking app and general transportation information. Transportation questions can depend on student address, assigned school, route assignment, bus changes, driver availability, safety rules, and current district notices.
Do not ask a driver to create a stop or approve a change. Use the official Transportation page, Bus Changes quick link, and school communication channels for official answers.
🚌 Transportation page
Use the official Transportation page for bus and transportation resources.
🚧 Bus Changes
Use the Bus Changes quick link for route or service notices when posted.
📱 EZ A2B
The Transportation page references EZ A2B for bus tracking app information.
⚠️ Route caution
Do not rely on old route screenshots, driver-level approval, or unofficial parent comments.
Closings, delays, weather updates and school-day changes
The KCS homepage includes a Closings/Delays quick link, and the district posts live-feed updates for major calendar and weather-related announcements when needed. Families should use official district alerts, school communication, and the KCS site before making decisions during winter weather or emergency conditions.
In March 2026, KCS posted an update that snow days during a specific period would not need to be made up because of a waiver, and it reminded families that another full districtwide closure could still change the calendar. That is a perfect example of why old calendar assumptions can fail.
During severe weather, check official channels rather than repeatedly calling schools. School offices may be handling safety logistics, transportation changes, and staff communication.
🌦️ Closings/Delays
Use the official KCS Closings/Delays quick link and district alerts.
📅 Calendar may shift
Weather and waiver decisions can affect whether days must be made up.
📲 Watch alerts
Use official district, school, and communication-platform notices for timely updates.
⚠️ Avoid rumors
Do not rely on unofficial social posts for final school closure decisions.
Schoology, staff links, careers and digital tools
The KCS homepage includes a Open Schoology quick link for learning platform access. Families and students should start from the official KCS quick link before entering login details.
The homepage also includes Staff Links, Careers, HR Documents, and related district tools. For employment, use the official Open Careers page rather than third-party job pages that may be outdated.
Any login page can be copied by lookalike sites. Use district-linked pages for Schoology, employee tools, student packets, and other systems before entering usernames, student data, or staff credentials.
📚 Schoology
Use the official KCS Schoology quick link for learning-platform access.

Special education documents, timelines and evaluation process resources
KCS document sections include Exceptional Students resources for the special education process, including timelines, special education evaluation process, and eligibility requirements for special education. Families should use the official documents and the child’s school team for student-specific questions.
If a student has an IEP, evaluation request, eligibility question, placement concern, service issue, or records request, start with the school team and official district special education resources. Keep copies of meeting notices, evaluation documents, consent forms, IEP paperwork, emails, and records requests.
♿ Special education process

Kanawha County schools, programs and school-level pages
The KCS website includes a school selector and program pages for athletics, community partnerships, community education, CTE, K-12 KCS Virtual Program, KCS Preschool, Laidley Field, scholarships, student support services, robotics, and the arts. Families should use the school selector or individual school page for campus-level contact information.
School-level pages are usually the fastest source for attendance notes, staff contacts, parent announcements, athletics updates, activity schedules, school-specific events, and building-level reminders. Use the central office for district-level issues and use the school office for child-specific daily needs.

The KCS homepage includes Open Careers and HR Documents quick links. Use official KCS pages before applying, uploading documents, or sharing employment information.
Job postings, application systems, benefits, forms, background check instructions, pay details, and hiring contacts can change. Do not rely on an old social post or third-party job listing when applying to Kanawha County Schools.
💼 Careers
Use the official Careers page for district employment information.
📄 HR documents
Use official HR Documents for current employment-related forms and guidance.
