After reassessing the road conditions, we have decided we will not be running our school buses today for morning or afternoon routes.
Due to icy road conditions, all WBSD7 schools will start 2 hours later than normal on Monday, January 24, 2022. Schools will begin 2 hours after their normal start time, and buses will run 2 hours later than normal for pick up in the morning. School will dismiss at its normal time.
Thank you,
WBSD7

Today's Career Panel featured locals in the business, finance, and marketing industries. Our students learned about these careers, including what types of degrees, training, and certificates they might need, and some pros and cons. The big lesson of the day? That it is never too late to change your situation.
Big thanks to Jeff Clarke, Vern Wilhite, Rachel Linn, Kay Atteberry, Brian Haaland, and Brandon Delvo for joining us today!
Reminder: There is no school for any WBSD7 schools on Monday, January 17th.
Close-Up is hosting a Pancake Breakfast on Sunday, 1/16 from 9:00am - 12:00pm. All donations will go towards the students' trip to Washington D.C.

We would like to remind families of the policies we are following per our Return to In-Person Learning Plan related to COVID-19 positive individuals:
Positive COVID-19 Diagnosis
ISOLATE: Stay home and away from others for at least 10 days after symptom onset and be fever free for 24 hours (without the use of medications) and have improvements in symptoms. If asymptomatic (without symptoms) isolate for 10 days beginning on test date.
If you have COVID-19, you must self-isolate regardless of vaccination status, previous infection, or lack of symptoms.
Recently the CDC updated their COVID guidelines for isolation time for positive individuals, however, at our recent school board meeting, it was decided we would continue with our current plan.
For more information and to read the plan, please visit our District Website https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/1413803/1.7.22_Amended_Return_to_In_Person_Plan.pdf

With the unfortunate increase in violence, threats, cyberbullying, and disruptive social media “challenges” in schools throughout the country, the Williston Basin School District #7 would like to take a moment to remind families and students that our District takes a zero-tolerance approach to any misconduct of this nature. Please see the attached notice from the Interim Superintendent, Lori Olson, and the Director of Student Services, Wyndy McGinley.
CANCELLATION:
Due to flight cancellations, our guest speaker Sgt. Rich has been cancelled this week. We will be rescheduling him for a later date and will communicate that as soon as we have that information.
Williston Basin School District #7 is proud to partner with CHI St. Alexius Health Williston for our Partners in Health Program. Our Partners in Health Program will provide WBSD7 with opportunities to provide beneficial resources including expert reviewed health articles and blog posts, Staff Wellness Days, informational forums, and more.
