STOPPING AT SCHOOL?
Mask Reminder
The Wausau School District has a New Inclement Weather Plan!
If school is closed for inclement weather, students are expected to log into SeeSaw at 8:30 and attend their google meets throughout the day. It is no longer a day off of school and therefore, no days will be added to the school calendar in June.
