Superintendent
I apologize for the early-morning delay. I know that is hard on families, that is why I really try to make the call the night prior if possible. I will be watching conditions closely through the day. Ice/sleet wintery mix is difficult to predict as the call is more about the impact than the conditions. I am confirming we will begin school following the 2 hour delay:
9:50 Elementary
9:55 MS
9:50 HS (see alt schedule for finals sent out by Mr. Mansky)

WUSD Staff and Families: In consultation with our bus company, we are very concerned about earlier-than-expected icing on the roads that will make it dangerous for our buses and the commute to school. (County A is currently closed by the Duck Inn due to icing.) We will be initiating a 2-hour delay and reassessing if school can start safely. AM 4K will be canceled.
Today, WUSD celebrates Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Join us in honoring Dr. King's legacy by fostering empathy, understanding, and equality with every person you meet.
