WLWV Community Update

The West Linn-Wilsonville social worker team will offer a free Anxiety 101 workshop for interested families on Thursday, Oct. 20 at Trillium Creek and on Dec. 8 at Meridian Creek Middle School from 5:30 - 7 p.m.

WLWV school social workers will present information on the basics of anxiety for students, including how anxiety works and tools to effectively work through anxious feelings. We hope to see families there!

The West Linn-Wilsonville School District will host a Literacy Partnership Night for all interested families on Nov. 9 at Stafford Primary and 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!

Music and Arts Partners has been advocating for music and arts education in the West Linn-Wilsonville School District since 1995, raising funds for instruments, sheet music, costumes, artists-in-residence, and more. MAP also awards scholarships to graduating seniors, relying on regional organizations and WLWV community members to raise funds. To learn more about MAP, access their Fall newsletter or visit their website.

Reunification is the process of controlled release of students. A reunification may be required if certain emergency events occur at school, such as threats to safety in the form of weapon threats, bomb threats, or building evacuations due to extreme weather, gas leaks, or earthquake situations.

Read about the district's reunification process, what parents can expect in the event of an offsite reunification, and how parents will be notified in the event of a reunification by visiting the district website. Thank you for your attention to this important safety protocol. Families are also encouraged to watch this video that outlines the reunification process in schools.

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.

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.
