Dear Parent,

Great news! Our school has partnered with Big Smiles to offer dental care right at school on Friday, March 1, 2024. No need to miss school or wait to get in for an appointment elsewhere. CLICK HERE to sign up your student today.

No Cost to You

Even better, dental care is usually at no cost to you. All insurance is accepted including Medicaid and CHIP. A low cost self-pay option is available for those without insurance.

Convenient and Comfortable

Our in-school dental program saves you time and provides a safe and comfortable place for your child to receive gentle dental care from licensed local professionals. Dental care includes:

• Complete dental exam

• X-rays

• Cleaning

• Fluoride

• Sealants when necessary

• Restorative care such as fillings

Dental Care for a Healthy Life

Children who see a dentist regularly may have fewer health issues like:

• Early tooth loss due to dental decay

• Gum disease

• Heart disease

• Impaired speech development

• Help keep your child healthy, in school and learning.

SIMPLY CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP ONLINE

If you haven't already, please complete this Parent Culture & Climate Survey to provide feedback about our school and district. The survey will close Feb. 9.

In December, we updated the Code of Conduct around Discriminatory Conduct and Speech to overtly address discriminatory, insensitive, demeaning verbal, written, pictorial, or symbolic language or gestures based on a protected class (race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, & genetic information). The District shared this change in the Board Meeting Report following the revision, and we have since reviewed expectations with students. View the comprehensive document. A copy of the updated Code of Conduct is available on the WSD website.

Students at Jennings High School and Wentzville Liberty High School prepared amazing appetizers and desserts for a Greater St.Louis Restaurant Association event. We love seeing our ProStart students get involved especially while serving fantastic food!

As part of the WSD’s ongoing efforts to meet the goals within the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP), surveys will be administered to students in grades K-12 and staff. The surveys are designed to solicit feedback about the sense of belonging created within each building as well as perspectives regarding building culture. Each school and department within the district will use this survey data to understand the current reality and to make improvements moving forward.

For more information regarding these surveys, please check out our WSD Belonging and Culture Survey page.
