Parents are reminded to self-check student health BEFORE sending students to school each day. We appreciate the partnership between school and home. It is more important now more than ever to keep students home if they exhibit any symptoms of the virus. Each school newsletter contains a helpful chart to help give parents guidelines to keep all students and staff this year. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US KEEP EVERYONE SAFE!!
Our Virtual Education platforms are also prepared and ready to go. Mrs. Rhoda Davis (rdavis@wrv.k12.in.us) will coordinate the program at the elementary school; Ms. Megan Padgett (mpadgett@wrv.k12.in.us) will guide the middle school virtual program; and Mrs. Claire Records (crecords@wrv.k12.in.us) will supervise the high school program and the Wolverine Academy.
A couple of reminders:
1. PPE/Masks: Masks are required on all WRV transportation. Bus drivers should be calling this weekend to finalize pick-up routes. Bus drivers will have disposable.
2. High School students and middle schools students who board the bus from the elementary school will NOT be allowed inside the elementary. Those students will board the shuttle bus out at the covered picnic shelter area.
3. PPE/Masks are required in places where social distancing cannot be achieved. Building principals will be holding meetings on August 11th to help guide students in this area. All students will receive a cloth mask from the Indiana Department of Education on the first day.
4. The water fountains have been turned-off and covered. Each school has two water refill stations, and each student will receive a clear bottle on the first day.
5. All WRV students--PK-Grade 12 will receive FREE LUNCH and BREAKFAST during the 2020-21 school year, including our Virtual Wolverines. Please look for information from Mrs. Wiggington, our Food Services Director, in school newsletters.
