THANKS for Your Service! Tuesday November 10, 2026, was the final Wicomico Board of Education meeting for three retiring members and we want to say "thank you" to each of them for their commitment to making Wicomico Public Schools a better place for our students to learn and staff to work.

- John Palmer, 11 years on the Board of Education
- Allen Brown, 8 years on the Board of Education, over 50 years with Wicomico Public Schools

Good attendance is critical for academic success! Students who reach 5 or more days of unexcused absences within a semester must complete an Attendance Intervention Plan (AIP). As the end of term 1 is approaching, make sure that you have turned in any excuse notes or reach out to the school to find out other ways you can recover your absences.
