Our People

Custodians across the district have worked around the clock to make sure our schools and buildings were ready for students the first day of school.


Hudson Elementary Custodial Supervisor Jeremy Duncan has been with the district for almost 13 years. Jeremy said he and his crew worked hard in the few weeks that the building was empty this summer but that "the smiles on the kids' faces makes it all worthwhile".


Do you have someone you want to give a shout out to? Use this form here to let us know about them.

Culture and Climate Surveys

In continuation of our efforts to support the academic and personal well-being of each WGSD student, district surveys will be administered to students in grades 3-12, families, and staff. Surveys will solicit participants' perspectives about learning strategies, culture and climate, and experiences in the classroom and/or school.

The surveys will allow for students, families and staff to offer feedback specifically about school safety, their sense of belonging, teacher-student relationships, cultural awareness and diversity and inclusion.
