WBSD Weekly Update

In this season of thankfulness, we are grateful for our engaged students, amazing staff, and wonderful families! For those of you celebrating, we wish you a restful and joyful holiday!

November 21 - Board of Education Meeting at WBHS

November 22 - Parent Communication Network Meeting - WBHS
November 23-25 - Thanksgiving Break

More than 200 students have been working diligently on "Why I am Grateful for You/Happy Thanksgiving" videos; composing in English, glossing to ASL, signing, and sending via email to their individually chosen WBSD employee(s). Kudos to teacher, Ms. Shaw! Visit the WBSD YouTube page for more videos.

As we embark on our Strategic Plan, please take a few minutes to provide your input regarding WBSD Communications. Click here to complete the 2022 Strategic Planning Communication Survey. Thank you in advance for your time!

WBHS SkillsUSA chapter has 35 members, the largest since it started in 2015! Students competed at a local competition to determine who would advance to the State Leadership and Skills Conference in 2023. All projects will be judged by local radio and tv professionals. Many thanks to Jennifer Williamson, WBHS Digital Media Arts Instructor.
