Exciting News for Clarksburg High School!
We are thrilled to announce that Utrust Foundation has awarded a mini grant to refresh and revitalize our High School Weight Room!
This project is a true testament to the dedication of our High School Wellness Class, led by the amazing Ms. Hudgens. These students have worked tirelessly to clean, organize, and repair the weight room, even creating a "wish list" to bring the space back to life.
Dr. Lisa Norris, Director of Schools, shared:
"The weight room will foster a culture of wellness and support mental and emotional well-being through physical activity. This project aligns perfectly with Clarksburg's Coordinated School Health Program."
A huge THANK YOU to the Utrust Foundation for helping us take this vision to the next level! We can’t wait to see our students enjoying this space and promoting fitness, health, and well-being.
Stay tuned for updates—we can’t wait to show off the transformation!
