Parkside High

Celebrating CTE Month! We are Building Bridges and Making Connections with Wor-Wic Community College with presentations in Transportation, Manufacturing, and Construction career clusters.

RAMFAM, let's make a difference today! I believe in you all! 💚🤍🐏🤍💚

This is important information about a revision to the approved 2025-2026 school year calendar to make up a day lost to winter weather last month.

During the Board of Education meeting on Feb. 10, the school system announced a revision to the approved calendar to use one of the designated make-up days. Students of Wicomico County Public Schools will now have school on Monday, March 16th, with 3-hour early dismissal. March 16th is no longer a staff professional day.

The revised calendar is posted in English, Spanish and Haitian Creole on the Calendar page of the school system’s website. Please make sure to use this updated calendar -- with a date of Feb, 10, 2026 in the bottom right corner and March 16th shown as a school day with early dismissal -- as the school year continues.

Congratulations Reagan Streng on being Parkside February LEO of the month!
