Williams Parent Bulletin

October 2021

Autumn is here!

As we enter the sixth week of school, we'd like to thank all of you for your hard work as you continue supporting your Williams student(s). We are now in the middle of trimester 1. Please be advised that this Friday, teachers will be sending out mid-trimester progress reports for students who are struggling with grade level standards. This is an opportunity for students and families to connect with teachers to seek help and/or make-up work that has not been turned in BEFORE the end of the trimester report cards go home.

Also, we send our thanks for continuing to screen your child BEFORE coming to school every day. Please keep students home when they feel sick. Remember that face coverings are still required at school. If your student is diagnosed with COVID-19, please notify our office. Our health clerk and school nurse are ready to assist and support you.

Thank you for taking note and putting a stop to bringing dogs to school. Please keep your pets in the car or at home when dropping off or picking up students from school. If you have questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to contact our office at (805) 488-3541. We appreciate your partnership!
