"A Child's mind is not a container to be filled, but rather a fire to be kindled." - Dorothea Brand We are excited to welcome back students tomorrow morning (Wednesday 8/3) It's going to be a great school year and we are excited to rekindle the fire of learning! A reminder to parents our first day is an early release Wednesday.

ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION REQUEST FORMS ARE DUE TODAY, Thursday, July 28th! Any Alternate Transportation Request Form turned in after today, including those collected at Back to School Night, will not be approved until after the first week of school - bus routes are being distributed to drivers tomorrow and Monday, and last-minute alterations cannot be made once this process begins. Please help us make sure your child receives the proper transportation arrangements on opening day. 🚌💨

We have officially one week until the first day of school! If you have not registered your students yet via PowerSchool Enrollment Express, please do so immediately. Students who have not been registered are not currently accounted for with support services, such as transportation.

SES Status Update: The power at the Waldron campus has been restored. School will proceed as normal on time tomorrow morning. Most of our bus routes will be run in there entirety, but there are a few troubled spots our drivers will not be able to get to. Drivers were attempting to make contact this evening. In those cases, families may need to find alternate transportation to school tomorrow morning. Contact your school office if you are unable to arrange alternate transportation.

Late yesterday afternoon, the Waldron community experienced storms that have caused significant damage to some homes and criticial infastructure in the area. The schools were not damaged, but as of this morning, remain without power. We will be working this afternoon to assess our ability to hold school tomorrow and will send out communication this evening with plans for school tomorrow. Thank you for your support.

Bus #4 will be running 15-20 minutes late this afternoon. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Due to Dense fog in the area, SES will operate on a 2 hour delay today, Thursday, May 19th.

We are excited to announce the Shelbyville Boys and Girls Club is coming back to Waldron Elementary School next fall. The B & G club will provide before and after school care on a daily basis next year. Details and registration info will be coming home in backpacks very soon.

Due to police activity in the immediate area, we will not be able to transport home some of our students who normally ride the School Bus to St. Paul. The WES/WHS Office will contact parents directly whose students have been impacted by this.
