WUSD Schools Closed Immediately Until at least April 6; Aquatic & Fitness Center Also Closed

3/15/20 Whitewater Unified School District is closing effective immediately due to the COVID-19 outbreak.


Due to the increasing number of corona-virus cases in Wisconsin, the increased concerns of parents, students, and staff, and the large number of closures in surrounding communities and states, it is in the best interest of the health and safety of Whitewater students and community to close schools beginning tomorrow. There will be no school for students tomorrow, Monday, March 16 and schools will remain closed until at least April 6.  All school and extracurricular activities are cancelled.


Sincerely,
Dr. Jim Shaw, PhD, District Administrator

*************Due to the above announcement late today that Whitewater schools would now be closed beginning immediately, the city has decided to close the Whitewater Aquatic and Fitness Center. Some maintenance projects normally scheduled for the summer will be moved up so that the center can take full advantage of the downtime.
