Back to School Orientation- Revised

July 15, 2020

Orientation will be a little different this year due to Covid19 restrictions. We had to split it into 2 different days and limit the time for each session. You will be receiving a letter closer to the start of school with your child's homeroom teacher and other important information.
We are so excited to have the students back and look forward to a great 2020-2021 school year.

Our goal is to have confirmed feedback from all families by July 20. The below decision will be a semester-by-semester commitment. Parents/guardians will need to complete one Student Intent Form for the 2020-21 School Year for each student in their household. To access and complete the Student Intent Form, go to the WCSD website.
