Did you get your postcard??????
Welcome Back to School!
During this visit, you will meet the teacher, visit the classroom, and get important information. You can also visit with other staff around the school, and students can follow a map to meet up with their encore teachers.
We expect most families prefer to visit in person, but we are also glad to offer zoom visits or phone calls to families who require them. Please make a note in the "anything we should know?" section if you prefer to zoom or meet by phone.
To sign up for your family time, find your teacher in the list below (sorted by grade level and teacher). Click on the icon and follow directions from there.
NOTE - We have heard from some users (who don't access Google) that they are seeing calendars in PACIFIC TIME. We apologize for this hiccup since this is our first time using this system. For now, we recommend selecting a time and adding 3 hours to it to adjust to eastern standard time. That means if you choose 7:00 am on PACIFIC time calendar (if that's what you see), then you would come for your family visit at 10:00 am. Please call if you need help getting signed up for a time. 336-838-4261
Also, please scroll to the bottom of the page to see the latest options for WES gear from our PTO and their online store with the RAGG Company. Order and pay online through September 15, and your gear will be delivered to school.
See you soon!

We Need Volunteers!
We welcome volunteers to help with school events. WCS uses Volunteer Tracker to help organize this process, and we use Sign Up Genius (shared via email and ClassDojo) to make signing up easy and convenient. To get signed up, follow steps below.
1. Go to www.wilkescountyschools.org
2. Go to the PARENTS tab at the top (or VOLUNTEER at the bottom).
3. Click on VOLUNTEERS.
4. Click on VOLUNTEER TRACKER.
5. Go to the green NEW REGISTRATION and follow instructions from there.
Level 1 volunteers can help in many ways. Level 1 volunteers can sign up to help with book fairs, school events, class parties and projects, Field Day, Fall Festival, and proctoring for tests.
Level 2 volunteers can do all level 1 tasks but can also help chaperone field trips and work more closely with students in small groups. Level 2 volunteers can also sign up for classroom tutoring and assistance, reading buddy program, tutoring, leading after school activities, and chaperoning school events field trips.
We ask that all parents/guardians who plan to attend field trips sign up to be Level 2 volunteers at the start of the year. It takes a few weeks to verify volunteers, and signing up early will make sure that you are approved in time for this year’s events and field trips.
