Chris Graham

Waynesboro Public SchoolsWaynesboro Public Schools will be holding a series of open house events this week to get students and families ready for the start of the upcoming 2021-2022 school year.

“As we move forward from remote and hybrid learning, we are excited to have students return to school,” Superintendent Dr. Jeffrey Cassell said. “Due to the pandemic many have not been in a school building for some time, and this will be an important time to meet teachers and staff.
