Dear Parents, Guardians & Students, thank you to the vast majority who have very good attendance and timekeeping. Currently, signing in late is an issue for some. While this is fully understandable on occasion when a bus is late for example, however, this needs to improve for those who are often late.

We appreciate your support in student getting to school on time which avoids unnecessary stress in beginning the day and also disruption to classes which are underway.

WRDATF, as part of its annual Drug and Alcohol Awareness Week, is hosting a short webinar for parents tonight on the topic of vaping. 

We feel this might be of interest to you as there is an ever increasing issue with vaping and young people.
