Here's Our Path note for this week. Thank you for all you do for our learners!
WASD Leadership Model
WASD First Choice Pyramid
WASD Strategic Plan
"Gratitude makes sense of your past, brings peace for today, and a vision for tomorrow."--Melody Beattie.
Our Path Note Topic
It is March 31st, and WASD has over 130 school days complete. You have worked hard, and committed to making the year possible for our learners.
With the holiday before us, we have some extra time to relax, enjoy time, and recharge in order to finish the rest of the school year...which is coming quickly.
Please don't let your guard down, and please encourage students to continue to be careful. There are still positive cases happening at a high rate. WASD is so close to the end of the school year, and we want to see it through. State guidelines are changing and loosening, but we still must remain vigilant.
Take care, enjoy your days off, and thank you for helping our learners get this far.
