Working with facilitators from the Educational Service Unit (ESU) and the Nebraska Department of Education (NDE), WPS employed the Activities Council and School Improvement Committee and conducted focus group meetings and sent out online surveys to engage parents and patrons. Internal stakeholders were also engaged in the needs assessment including the board of education, administrators, certified staff, classified staff, and students. By engaging a diverse group of internal and external stakeholders, we provide the opportunity for the community to express their thoughts, ideas, and concerns regarding the current culture, but also the vision for the future of WPS.
The process allowed us, as a community, to closely examine the current status of the district. We examined our strengths, but also participated in frank conversations about the district's most pressing needs. Stakeholders reaffirmed, while there is much to be proud of, there are areas in which we must improve in order to fulfill our mission.
Collectively, the community and the staff are committed to doing all we can to improve the district. In effort to address some of the most pressing issues brought forward by stakeholders, the Activities Council and School Improvement Team have evaluated current handbook policies on Attendance and Eligibility. We have also highlighted the most common infractions of our current Dress Code policy.
Something new that we will implement starting this fall is the Absence Make-Up slip. This will replace the "Notice of Student Absence". Students will be required to complete a Make-Up slip prior to planned absences (excluding school activities) and after unplanned absences. Students will need to meet with each of their teachers (following their schedule) to get missing assignments. This form will be initialed by each teacher and signed by a parent and an administrator.
Please take a look at the changes and discuss them with your student and please reach out with any questions you may have. We are looking forward to a great year!
Come check out the Wynot K-12 student's artwork at the Cedar County Fair Art Exhibit, now until Sunday. These students put in a lot of hard work and it shows!
