WSD Families,
The Wentzville School District is excited to continue our future ready work with the district's college and career readiness platform, Xello. For the 24-25 school year, middle school and high school students in WSD will continue to utilize the platform and will begin teacher-led lessons during student success time. Lessons should be completed during the following windows of time:
Lesson 1: September 30 -October 11
Lesson 2: November 12-22
Lesson 3: January 6-24
Lesson 4: March 10-20
Xello allows students to document their journey as they build self-knowledge, explore post-secondary options, create plans, construct resumes, build a student portfolio, and continually reassess as they take in new knowledge, skills, and experiences. Students also have the opportunity to apply for colleges, request letters of recommendation and transcripts, as well as learn about current job opportunities and scholarships in our community.
Xello Student Opportunities:
Self assessment through personality, learning styles, and skill assessments
Post-secondary pathway exploration experiences
College applications and recommendation letters
Unique student portfolio and resume creation
Individual career and academic planning for high school aligned with WSD pathways
Learn about local job opportunities and scholarships in our area
Watch this Xello for families video for a program overview. More information will be available soon on how to activate your family account to view your child’s progress.
St. Charles County public school district students have automatic access to library materials and online resources through the St. Charles County Library. Our families are provided the opportunity to opt out of this automatic access when completing annual forms at the beginning of the year. If desired, parents may opt out by working with their school librarian.
NPMS students can stay after school and receive homework help in Room 1216 in the 7C hallway. This is offered weekly Monday through Thursday except for the third Thursday of each month. Math help is also offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Students do not need to sign up in advance to take advantage of this opportunity, but they do need to have a ride home at 3:30 p.m.

All families have the option to purchase Chromebook insurance annually for each child in grade 6-12.
You have the option to purchase this online with RevTrak/Vanco, our Online Payment website. This is a feature for families to pay online rather than sending in money for the optional insurance fee ($20). This is for grades 6-12.
To access the WSD Online Store, families will need to visit wsdr4.revtrak.net and select their level, school, student, and Technology.
You also have the option of bringing in cash or a check to the main office.
Medications at School
Does your student take over-the-counter or prescription medication? If so, get updated medication orders from their physician that include the name of the student, name of drug, dosage, frequency of administration, route of administration, and the prescriber's name. Drop both the physician orders and medication off at your child’s school for the nurse prior to the start of school.
- Medication drop-off must be done by appointment only. Please contact the nurse directly. Her information is provided below.
- Parents are required to bring medication to school in properly labeled prescription bottles.
