WLWV Community Update

FlashAlert is the system that we use to notify you of school closures, delays, and other similar events. The system is routinely pruned of untouched accounts so even if you had previously subscribed, you should verify your subscriptions at https://www.flashalert.net/login.html. Please note that this is not a West Linn-Wilsonville system and we can provide only limited help.

Families should consider getting the free FlashAlert Messenger app from the Apple AppStore or Google PlayStore. Announcements will also be displayed on the local TV channels. During an event, we will also post an announcement on district and school website homepages as well as our emergency communications system.

The West Linn-Wilsonville School District will host a Literacy Partnership Night for all interested families on Nov. 17 at Lowrie Primary from 6-7 p.m. Geared towards families of primary-aged students, staff will provide information and resources for supporting readers at home. We hope to see you there!

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.

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."

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.
