Once a wolf, always a wolf!

First day of school reminders!
A note from Mrs. Teamann
One more sleep, one more sleep!
It's finally here, our start to the 20-21 school year! I am happy to be back at school and am SO proud of our campus, and you, our parent pack, for all we've done to get to this place!
We look forward to seeing students again either virtually or on-campus TOMORROW. I want to offer a special welcome to our brand new Whitt Wolf families! From this point forward you'll receive a weekly campus newsletter each Friday full of all kinds of fun things to be aware of and to keep in mind.
My door is always open and I look forward to meeting and working with each of you in the coming school year. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me anytime. It is going to be a great year for our Wolves!
Proud principal,
Mrs. Teamann
On campus learner reminders...
- Doors to the campus open at 7:00 am and school begins at 7:20 am. The closer you arrive to the actual start of our school day will help with social distancing.
- We will not be outside policing social distancing for our families before our day begins. Please be mindful and respectful of people's personal space.
- Only students will enter the building. Parents and visitors are not permitted for the safety of our students and staff.
- All staff will be wearing face coverings (masks)
ALL ON CAMPUS LEARNERS HAVE TO FILL THIS OUT, weekly!
- https://forms.wylieisd.net/Forms/HealthScreening Please help me by ensuring you complete this before tomorrow!
Bus route information
For the first few days, buses may run a few minutes late as they learn and work with new routes and safety measures. Thank you so much for your patience!

Curbside Meal pick up for remote learners
WISD is committed to ensuring remote learning students will continue to have access to breakfast and lunch.

News from Nurse Kim
- Each week you will need to complete a weekly health screening survey for your student. https://forms.wylieisd.net/Forms/HealthScreening
- I am going to serve as your point of contact for COVID-related issues including reporting illnesses and possible exposures. When a student is ill at school, the teacher will notify the nurse for the need for a clinic visit. When a student has potential COVID-symptoms, they will be kept isolated as they wait to be picked up. If your student is experiencing symptoms at home, please include them on the health survey or notify me. I will contact you to work out a return to school activities date.
