Last evening the Board of Education adopted a resolution to create a secondary school for grades 7-12. The district has sent the appropriate paperwork to NYSED for approval. We will be forming a task force and subcommittees to discuss the future. We will keep you abreast of developments as they occur. NYSED and the NYSDOH has issued new guidance as it related to COVID-19. We are in the process of reviewing this information and will provide an update in the near future. For now, masks are optional in all school settings, including the bus. All other protocols remain in place. You can refer to our school reopening page for further information. #RamPride #RamResolve

Governor Hochul announced that the statewide indoor mask mandate affecting schools will end on Wednesday, March 2, 2022. Effective Wednesday, March 2, mask wearing will be optional in our school buildings for students, faculty and staff. The decision to wear or not to wear a mask is a personal decision based on various factors, including an individual’s health and comfort level. The WHUFSD supports the decision each person will make. We will have more information as we receive it from the Department of Health. #RamResolve

As in previous years, the window for our students and parents to take the ESSA Climate survey has been and will be during the month of March. You should have received a letter from your building principal. The survey can be found at climatesurvey.nasbo es.org. The link is also on our website in the menu, under community. If you did not receive your user information, please contact your building principal. Thank you. #RamPride #RamResolve
