We want to take a moment to clear up a few rumors and keep our community in the loop.
At the last school board meeting, we talked about the recent drop in participation in boys sports, especially football and basketball, and how we can best support our students moving forward. As part of those conversations, we have also spoken with a few neighboring schools about the possibility of a cooperative football program due to low participation numbers.
These discussions are only part of looking at all of our options and doing what’s best for our kids. We have enough students to field a team, but if injuries or other things occur, it could leave us in a tough spot.
We truly appreciate the support of our families and community, and we promise to continue sharing updates as we work through this together. Our goal is to keep providing our students with great opportunities with all activities.

Wolsey-Wessington School will have a two-hour late start tomorrow due to the below zero temperature. Buses will run two hours later than normal. Stay warm!
Over the past 20 years, our Warbird logo has been a big part of who we are. It’s something many of us recognize instantly and feel connected to.
Lately, we’ve been exploring what it might look like to clean up and modernize the logo while still keeping the same overall concept and identity that people know and love. This is not a final decision and nothing is changing right now, we’re simply looking for feedback.
We truly value the voice of our community, so we want to hear from you. Here is a short survey:

Hello this is Mr. Donovan. With our first weather related early out I want to make sure everyone is communicated with. If you could please text the number "79041" and have the message say "Yes". This will opt you into the text messages and calls if something happens. This is the best way to communicate with everyone to make sure everyone knows what is going on. Stay safe and stay warm!
