Due to a mechanical issue (well pump) in the school building, the DAMASCUS AREA SCHOOL will operate on a Flexible Instruction Day (FID – virtual learning) on Friday, February 13, 2026.

Damascus students should not report to school on this day. Instead, they will complete their instructional activities and assignments from home via remote learning. It is anticipated that the mechanical issue will be resolved and school will resume normal procedures on Tuesday - February 17, 2026, following the holiday weekend.

This communication DOES NOT impact any other Wayne Highlands school. All schools, other than Damascus, will operate normally (to include transportation), on Friday - February 13, 2026.

WCCF presented a grant to students in SPC

The Youth Advisory Council of the Wayne County Community Foundation presented a grant to student in the Stourbridge Primary School.

The funding was used to help the students hold a Secret Santa Program last Christmas.

The students purchased and wrapped items given to children who otherwise would not receive gifts for the Holiday.
