Weekly Student On-Campus PCR Testing
If you haven't already, we strongly encourage all families to register their student(s) for weekly COVID testing during the school day every Monday with WorkSite Labs. This service is FREE and so easy! Parents simply need to fill out forms for consent and insurance. We are so fortunate to have this free service available to all staff and students, and it would benefit our entire school community if ALL students were signed up. Find info and registration HERE.
Weekly Community On-Camus PCR Testing
WESD continues to provide community COVID PCR testing on campus with Virus Geeks every Thursday in Wildcats from 3-4pm for WESD students, staff & parents and 4-6pm for the community/public. No public arrivals before 4 pm please. If you are bringing your child to the testing tomorrow, please come through and check-in at the office. The office staff will help direct you to the line for members of the school community (which differs from the community testing line). It is possible that some may be turned away. Find info and registration HERE.

Is Your Child Struggling & Need Support?
Allison Brunner, the School Psychologist, and Mena Lam, the School Counselor created the WESD Counselor's website containing resources for parents, students, and staff including a variety of coping skills, executive functioning strategies, and SEL activities. This website has a virtual "mailbox" to ask a question, share a message, or just contact Ms. Lam or Mrs. Brunner for a check-in. We hope this will provide some additional support with at-home learning. They are here to help your child if he/she is in need of support during this difficult time. Or simply email them directly — Ms. Lam and Mrs. Brunner.
