As we continue to hold the families in Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District community in our hearts and prayers, while they continue to process and grieve such a horrible tragedy, I am sharing a portion of the email sent by Mr. Gutman earlier this week. Please reach out to me or any member of our staff if we can be of help/support to you and your families.

In the Walled Lake Consolidated School District, we remain committed to the safety and security of our students, staff, and families. We continue to review and practice our safety and security measures to ensure the safety of all who learn, work, and play within our buildings. We take all incidents involving student and staff safety seriously and appreciate our partnerships with local law enforcement officials. We ask students, parents, and community members to report all suspicious or threatening activity to law enforcement and/or school/district administration immediately.

Your children are our children, and we will continue to do everything in our control to maintain safety in our schools. These are resources to help you discuss this with your children:

The District is now offering optional COVID testing to our staff, students, and parents. Both Rapid and PCR tests are available. The testing will take place at the Educational Services Center (850 Ladd Road, Building D Walled Lake, MI 48390) on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 p.m.

The COVID testing staff, provided by a third party, will be responsible for letting people in the side door on the south side of the building.

· If you have insurance, your insurance provider will be billed.

· If you do not have insurance, there is a cost of $110.00 for a PCR test and $50.00 for a rapid test - This comes as a result of the Federal Government no longer providing funding for testing.

There will be signage placed both inside and outside of the building. To set up an appointment for testing, please complete this requisition form.
