Dear Students and Families,
We are moving into Week 20 here at WYWLA, which will bring us into Winter Break! We are at the end of 1st Semester! Congratulations to all our OWLs on their hard work this semester. When we return to Week 21, we will be jumping into 2nd Semester. We wish you a safe, restful, wonderful, and restful Holiday Break.
Schedule: WYWLA highschool students are done with exams. Middle School students have classes on Monday, December 19, and Tuesday, December 20.
Winter Spirit: Students are welcome to wear Holiday shirts/sweaters with jeans (without holes/tears) on Monday, December 19. Students are welcome to wear cozy, comfy, or Holiday themed clothes on Tuesday, December 20. Students are always welcome to wear their uniforms instead!
Bus Rider Parents: Parents, WCPSS now uses Bus Suspensions for students who cannot follow bus expectations. Several WYWLA students have been cited for throwing food and other items outside of the bus windows. Please speak to your student about this if they ride a bus to or from school.
