Patriot Peek at the Week News
February 7th-11th
Dear Wolf Ridge Students and Families,
Welcome back! I hope everyone was able to stay safe and warm during our snow days last week. I also hope that everyone was able to build a snowman, sled, or play in the snow.
You should have received notification from Superintendent Dugan that our district is now mask optional. I have included a link to the letter from the Superintendent below. I reminded all of our students this morning to simply be kind. We do not need to know the reason for individuals choosing to either mask or not mask. We will respect that choice and show kindness to everyone. We are focusing on kindness for the month of February. Random Acts of Kindness Day is on February 17th. Let's spread kindness all month long!
