Good afternoon WBSD7 Parents,
With the possibility of a winter storm approaching our area, we wanted to let you know that we are keeping a close eye on the weather.
As of right now, we are planning on running school as scheduled on Tuesday, 4/12/2022. Buses are also scheduled to run as normal.
There will be no school for Teacher In-Service on Wednesday, 4/13/2022, and Easter Break beginning Thursday, 4/14/2022, through Monday, 4/18/2022. Students will return to school on Tuesday, 4/19/2022.
If the situation changes, we will update parents through email, text, and on our District Facebook page (www.facebook.com/wbsd7).
Thank you,
Lori Olson
Interim Superintendent
