Principal's Message |
Welcome to WCI and welcome back those who are returning. I hope everyone is continuing to enjoy the summer and looking forward to the new school year. It is useful to always read all of the e-news every week since it will post important dates and upcoming events.
For those families who have incoming 7th grade students, please fax, e-mail, or personally bring in records of your student's Tdap vaccination. Our fax number is 925-933-1922 or you can e-mail Earlene Caven at ecaven@wcsd.k12.ca.us. Please do not wait to do this, students are not allowed receive their schedule or attend classes without the Tdap verification.
Welcome back again, we are looking forward to an excellent school year.
