MARCH NEWSLETTER 2020
2020 Census: It’s more than just a count, it’s an opportunity to shape the next generation.
Every 10 years, the Constitution requires that all residing in the U.S. be counted. The 2020 Census counts the population in the United States and five U.S. territories and it is particularly important for school districts. The 2020 Census will inform funding for educational programs that benefit our children, such as special education, after-school activities and school meal programs. Each home received an invitation in March to respond to a short questionnaire online (new!), by phone, or by mail. The information you receive has a special Census ID number to use when you respond and "Count Day" is officially April 1, but you can complete it today. All responses to Census Bureau surveys and censuses are confidential and protected under Title 13 of the U.S. Code. Under this law, the Census Bureau is required to keep respondent information confidential.
Be sure to take the time to fill out the questionnaire - so everyone in the WSD counts! For more information, visit 2020census.gov.
MONTHLY ESSENTIALS FOCUS-MARCH
Essential 8: Be organized and prepared to make every day the best day that it can be
- No matter the circumstances, always be honest. Even if you have done something wrong. It is best to admit it because they will respect that, and oftentimes forgo any disciplinary measures because of your honesty.
- Honesty is the easiest route to take. It requires no excessive thought, no elaborate plan, and no need to recall fake information.
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION INFORMATION
All registration/screenings will take place at the Parents as Teachers Office at One Campus Drive, Wentzville, MO 63385. If your child has already been screened, you will still need to register your child for kindergarten on their school’s registration date at the Parents as Teachers Office. However, you will not need to schedule a time to register, as it is only necessary to schedule screening appointments. Registration is open from 9:00-11:30 a.m. and 4:00-6:00 p.m.
For the full schedule of registration dates and a list of the information you will need to bring with you, please visit the WSD website.

NURSE'S NOTES
Dear Parent or Guardian,
When calling to report your student’s absence regarding illness, please provide a detailed description of the student’s current symptoms. For example, instead of saying “My child is home sick”, please say “My child has a fever, cough, runny nose, and a sore throat”. The WSD appreciates your assistance with keeping us up to date with current illness trends.
Healthy regards!
