The first few days of school are always an exciting time for students, staff, and families alike. Our collective efforts resulted in a Tigerific start to the 2022-2023 school year. We encourage all of you to take some time this weekend to celebrate a successful first week of school and recharge for the weeks ahead.

This year, our Wildwood Newsette digital newsletter will take on a new look as the "Wildwood Weekly" - a weekly communication published every weekend to highlight the happenings of the prior week and update you about what's coming up in the weeks ahead. Please look for the "Wildwood Weekly" in your email inbox every weekend as it will be the main school-to-home communication from the office this school year. Our classroom teachers will continue using the Wednesday folders to send home student work and occasional school/PTA hard copy communications.

Enjoy your weekend, Tiger community. We've ALL earned it!

~ Mr. Lynch

FREE MEALS FOR ALL STUDENTS

School meals for the 2022-2023 school year will be available to all students at no charge. Although all students will receive free meals through the duration of this school year, we request for all families to complete this Online Free / Reduced Meal Eligibility for School Year 2022-2023 form, as this form affects a variety of areas unrelated to school meals, including school funding, college application fees, SAT fees, bus passes and more. Even if your child does not plan to eat school lunches, it is important to fill out this form to help ensure our schools and families receive the available resources.

High-speed internet has become a necessity of modern life, which is why the Ventura County Office of Education is supporting a statewide effort to make it available to everyone.

The California Broadband Council is spreading the word that low-income families can receive a $30 monthly discount on home internet service and a $100 discount on a computer or tablet. There are about 80,000 households in Ventura County who are eligible for these discounts that haven’t yet applied.

More information about the program is available at www.internetforallnow.org.

We currently have openings for the following positions on our SSC team.

• (DAC) District Advisory Council Representative
• (AADAC) African American District Advisory Council Representative

All adults entering the campus during school hours must sign in electronically with their picture ID in the front office and obtain a visitor or volunteer badge/sticker to be worn at all times while on campus. All volunteers who work with students must have a current TB test or a Risk Assessment Questionnaire on file as well.

We want to remind all Tiger families that if your student is exhibiting any of the following symptoms, please keep them home until symptom(s) are improving and they are fever-free without any fever-reducing medications for 24 hours.

It is important that all positive cases of COVID-19 are reported to the health office. If your student tests positive for COVID-19, we need to know in order to ensure we are supporting your student through their recovery. The health and safety of our student body and staff is a top priority. If you have any questions or concerns related to COVID-19, please reach out to our office.
