WLWV Community Update

Riverside will be hosting an Informational Night on October 10, starting at 5:00 pm, at Athey Creek Middle School. This will be an opportunity to learn more about what Riverside High School will offer as WLWV’s newest comprehensive high school, as well as a time to learn about the enrollment process. Check out this flier for more details!

Beginning October 18, West Linn-Wilsonville schools will charge fees for damages to Chromebooks that are checked out to students. Examples of Chromebook damage could include broken keys or keyboards, screen damage, or lost or broken power cords. The district provided grace for damaged devices during remote learning and the pandemic. This change is necessary to ensure that the district maintains an ample supply of functioning Chromebooks for schools and students, however.

Students who no longer require Chromebooks at home are asked to return them to their school. Students, particularly in high school, who have properly checked out a Chromebook this school year do not need to return their device. Families may return damaged or unneeded Chromebooks to their school through October 17 without incurring any fees for damaged devices.

Fee amounts will depend on the severity of damage. Money collected from damaged Chromebooks will allow for devices to be repaired or replaced.

The safety of our students is of critical importance. Even so, accidents do happen, at school and elsewhere, and required medical care can be expensive. Please know that your school does not assume responsibility for such costs but does offer access to several student accident insurance plans for voluntary purchase.

To learn more about student insurance options available to families, including how to enroll, please visit the district website.

This school year, the Standard Response Protocol formerly known as "Lockout" has the new name of "Secure". This change has been made across Clackamas County to avoid confusion with the "Lockdown Protocol." WLWV schools have also added the "Hold" protocol, which is used in situations that require students to remain in classrooms so that hallways are clear. All of the Standard Response Protocols used in WLWV schools can be found below, and more information can be located on the district website.

Drills that are regularly practiced in the district include:

• Lock Down: A Lock Down secures students, staff, and volunteers within classrooms while leaving entrances open for emergency personnel and law enforcement to clear the building.
• Secure: A Secure secures and locks the building's entryways while safely sheltering all students, staff, and visitors inside the school building. This drill allows the school day to continue within the building.
• Evacuate: An Evacuation requires students, staff, and visitors to relocate to another area in the event of a fire, earthquake, or other emergency situation.
• Shelter: A Shelter requires students and staff to take shelter inside the school in the event that hazardous materials are released into the atmosphere, or extreme weather circumstances exist.
• Hold: A Hold is used in situations that require students to remain in their classrooms. For example, a medical issue may require only one are ato be cleared, with halls still open in case outside medical assistance is required. The school day continues as usual during a "Hold."

Families wanting information about resources and additional community partners are encouraged to access the district's Community Bulletin Board. The Community Bulletin Board is where community partners share relevant flyers and information about youth sports, camps and outside learning opportunities, enrichment opportunities, fundraisers, and other community-based opportunities. Community members can also post information to the Community Bulletin Board by submitting a PDF.

Several Capital Construction Projects are continuing this school year with even more construction planned for the coming summer as part of the 2019 Capital Bond. Learn more about major bond projects, construction timelines, quarterly reports, and more by visiting the bond website.

Community members are also encouraged to sign up for project updates through the Capital Bond Project ListServs. Watch progress videos of the New Athey Creek Middle School and Wilsonville High School Auditorium below.
