WHS Shifting to Virtual Instruction (for identified students) for three days due to COVID-19

This communication was sent to WHS Families on December 7.

Dear WHS Families, 

The District adopted a plan requiring a school to shift to virtual instruction for three days after three positive COVID-19 cases are confirmed within a seven-day period.  Unfortunately, we have confirmed three cases at Whitewater High School and the building will be closed for in-person attendance Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  The building will be deep cleaned on Thursday. In-person instruction for identified students will resume on Friday. There will be no disruption in virtual instruction. 

Contact Tracing:

Upon receiving the notification and confirmation, the school conducted initial contact tracing and has contacted any students or staff who were directly impacted by close contact via phone. If you did not receive a call, you were not a close contact. 

Online Meals:

The deadline to order online meals for Tuesday will be extended to 8:00pm tonight.  Families are able to order meals by following this link:  https://sites.google.com/wwusd.org/wusd-covid-19/food-service. Meals ordered for pick up at WHS Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday will be available for pick up outside of WHS.
