This is an abbreviated newsletter. We will return with spotlights next week. This is an abbreviated newsletter. We will return with spotlights next week.

Welcome Back, Pioneers! Welcome Back, Pioneers!

I want to extend a thank you to everyone who helped our Pioneer community stay strong during fall break. The outpouring of love through donations, volunteerism, and service by our faculty, staff, families, and students to our community was inspiring and makes me proud to stand with you as Pioneers.


Many have experienced great loss due to flooding. Please be patient, kind, and supportive to all this week as we return to school.


If you need to talk to someone, please visit our counseling center or email your school counselors directly. If you need food, clothes, or other items, please contact our school social worker Amanda White at whitea1@wcde.org.


This week is both homecoming week and senior week. See the dress up days below from our student section leaders. On Friday night, we will have homecoming and fall senior sports night at the football game. We will also have a pep rally (Friday) and powderpuff (Thursday). The fall concert has been rescheduled for Thursday night.

In the event that you have to miss school, email attendance notes to the attendance office or turn them in at the main office before school, between classes, or during lunch.

Weekly Reminders Weekly Reminders

Since we missed the last few days of homecoming week, we will resume this week.


I am sure there have been things rescheduled that I do not have on the calendar. Please email me (keysa@wcde.org) with any date changes so that I can add that to the calendar and the weekly updates. Thanks!
