Principal Points
There are many changes this school year...changes in personnel...changes in how we teach...changes in how we meet...again...remember PATIENCE, POSITIVITY and FLEXIBILITY! We got this!
While staff are not officially back yet, I can bet that many are spending their days and/or evenings planning on how the year will best be served. As I'm sure many families are trying to figure out this new world. This newsletter will focus on the changes we will see for the start of the school year.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me 715-261-0965 or email me cwhooleyjepson@wausauschools.org. (email is probably best right now as I do not have office assistance at the moment).
Thank you for your patience and for any support you can throw our way. Let's make 2020-21 an AMAZING year!
Yours in partnership
Colleen Whooley Jepson, Principal
