FBI accepting applications for 2026 Teen Academy. The daylong program will be held at the FBI’s CJIS Division in North Central West Virginia on Sept. 22. Interested students must submit their applications by Sept. 2.
The Teen Academy provides high school students the opportunity to develop leadership skills and investigate the world of law enforcement.
Participants will take a tour to learn about the expansive responsibilities of campus employees and gain insight into operations at FBI field offices across the country.
Special agents, intelligence analysts and professional staff will lead discussions and interactive sessions focused on their work, how it is done and why they choose the work in service of all Americans.
The program is not exclusive to students interested in criminal justice.
All potential students will be evaluated based on an essay, as well as their GPA, school activities and community involvement.
The FBI noted that no single element will be the sole basis of evaluation, and applicants should take the process seriously.
Official applications can be downloaded at https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/outreach-apptions/2026-fbi-cjis-teen-academy-clarksburg-application.pdf/view.
Students must complete the application on a computer and return it via email to CJIS_COP@fbi.gov.

💜 A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Community! 💜
St. Marys High School would like to extend a sincere THANK YOU to Matheny Ford of St. Marys and the Pleasants Area Chamber of Commerce for their generous donation of school supplies collected through their recent school supply drive. 📚✏️🎒
These donations make a meaningful difference for our students by helping ensure they have the supplies they need to begin the school year prepared and confident. We are incredibly grateful to have community partners who continually step up to support our students and families.
We would also like to recognize the many individuals, businesses, and organizations who have donated clothing, shoes, personal care products, school supplies, and other necessities to our St. Marys High School Clothing Closet — Judy’s Closet this year. 👕👟🧴
Judy’s Closet exists so that our students can quietly and comfortably access items they may need throughout the school year. The continued generosity of our community allows us to keep the closet stocked and available to any student who needs it, with no questions asked.
Every backpack, notebook, pair of shoes, article of clothing, and personal care item donated represents more than just a physical item—it represents a community letting our students know that they are cared for and supported.
We are incredibly fortunate to live in a community that takes care of its own. Thank you for continuing to support the students of St. Marys High School and for helping us make sure our students have what they need to be successful. 💜🤍
Take what you need. Give when you can. Pay it forward when you are able.
