The Maintenance & Operations Department recently purchased a new Kubota tractor. It's proving to be a very useful asset. They put it to the test over at Carlin C. Coppin Elementary to clean up and drag the track for students to use safely!

Over the past couple weeks, crews at Foskett Ranch Elementary (FRE) were hard at work to replace the chiller. This is a pretty big project which requires the use of cranes and skilled labor. The process should be done very soon - just in time for the warmer weather!

New student registration will remain open throughout the rest of this school year and through the summer. All of the priority registration windows are now closed, but we will continue to accept both registration and transfer forms.

🚨Update Your Emergency Contact Information

🏡Complete the Household Income Form

At the end of last school year, your child's school sent out notifications to update/verify your emergency contact information using your PowerSchool Parent Portal. As a reminder, this needs to be completed by every returning family. Families who recently registered their child for school (new to WPUSD) do NOT need to complete this process.

For instructions on how to access your PowerSchool Parent Portal account click HERE.

DID YOU KNOW?
A portion of every school's funding is determined by the needs of its students. Extra funding is usually distributed to schools based on submitted free/reduced meal applications but this year the state is providing schools with the option of using the Household Income Form. This form can easily be completed online and will provide your school with extra funding. Please note that for the 2023-2024 school year all students are eligible for FREE meals, so extra funding will be distributed differently and the Household Income Form is the best source to increase your school’s funding.

WHY FILL OUT THE FORM?

• additional support staff for schools, like Instructional Aides, Intervention Support Providers, and after school tutors
• more resources for classrooms and teachers
• additional health and wellness services
• fee waivers for college applications
• fee waivers for college admissions exams (i.e. SAT/ACT/AP)
