A big, virtual fist bump goes out to Lawyers Title & Stop2Shop for donating/delivering multiple cases of water to the WES campus to ensure our students stay hydrated. Charger Strong! 👊👊👊
USD 329 Family,
We wanted to let you know that the district is taking precautions during this heatwave. These include reducing outside times at recess, frequent hydration breaks during the day, and ensuring walkers and bus riders have a water supply for the trip home. Please contact your school office if you plan to change the way your student gets home at some point during this hot spell. Stay cool and have a great week!
