Good Morning Families, We have been informed that the Daily Symptom Check from Qualtrics was distributed for our students this morning. This was done in error, and has been reported to our provider. The symptom check is not required at this time and may be disregarded. We apologize for any confusion, White Salmon Valley School District

October 12, 2020 Greetings WSVSD Families, We wanted to update our K-6 families as we finalize the Reopening Hybrid Plan. In order to balance our in-person and remote learning for teachers and students, the district is looking to start with a shortened in-person day from 8:15-12:30. The start dates and cohort assignments will be shared soon by building principals. Sincerely, Dr. Jerry Lewis Superintendent

Dear White Salmon Families, We hope this letter finds you well. Over the past few weeks, we have worked closely with the local health department and regional superintendents to develop a plan to bring small groups of students on campus. Our district staff has identified and prioritized the students with the highest need from our most vulnerable and sensitive groups. There are specific health guidelines in place we will follow to provide safety for students and staff. Lastly, we are working towards bringing back K-6 students into a hybrid model with board approval when state and local health department measures are met. We thank you for your ongoing support and will continue to share with you updated information regarding our reopening plans. Sincerely, Dr. Jerry Lewis
