District Update

Dear WLCSD Parents:

With three middle and high school Limited In-Person days of school completed, we are pleased to report that our students and staff pivoted into utilizing our safety protocols to ensure a safe school environment. Our middle and high school staff and students also transitioned to working with In-Person and Our Path students simultaneously. Thank you to staff, students, and families for your flexibility, patience, and grace as we continue to refine our practices and to offer three learning options.

HS asynchronous learning day on Tuesday, Jan. 26 for HS testing

Since testing dates and times have been altered a few times this year, please know that Tuesday, Jan. 26 will be an asynchronous learning day for ninth-and-12th-grade high school students only.

The tenth-and 11th-grade students taking the PSAT/NMSQT ARE THE ONLY STUDENTS to Report to School on Tuesday, Jan. 26 from 7:20- 11:15 a.m.
Tenth and 11th-graders who are NOT taking the PSAT do not come to school.
We understand this is short notice and apologize for the inconvenience. We believe this is the most efficient way to ensure our students who have registered for the tests have a safe, socially-distanced environment in which to take the test without other distractions.

Middle and High School report cards are available now on Skyward Family Access.

Virtual PTSA Council meeting is on Monday, Jan. 25. Register here to attend

Snow day update: Although our teachers’ acumen with technology and virtual learning may allow for us to minimize snow days in the future, the current environment also calls for a little joy, freedom, and normalcy. Therefore, if weather conditions warrant it, we will have some snow days this school year with no synchronous or asynchronous learning.

CONGRATULATIONS & THANK YOU TO:

Kathy Murray, first-grade teacher at Mary Helen Guest Elementary, who is known for her long term commitment to social justice advocacy and Sophia Lafayette-Lause, former WLCSD administrator and co-chair of the WLCSD Social Justice committee, who received the Alec Bender Friend of Diversity Awards, at the Dr. Martin Luther King Celebration, on Monday.
Tyler Harding, WL Northern High School 12th-grade student, Cayden Brown, Walnut Creek Middle School eighth-grade student and Archita Paul Nath, Sarah Banks Middle School sixth-grade student, who delivered the powerful keynote speeches on Monday at the Dr. Martin Luther King Celebration.
