Parents of current 4th-8th graders:

For more information, visit https://worldstrides.com/itineraries/florida-splash-into-science/ or contact Meghan Clark at meghan.clark@willistonschools.org.
To say with are proud is an understatement. We cannot wait to see all the things this group of students will accomplish in the next four years at Williston High School.
❗️Attention❗️8th Grade Parents
Our trip to Rapid City is just around the corner and we are so excited!! We have had to change a few things on our itinerary due to availability. We found a lot of fun places for the kids to enjoy! We have included a basic packing list at the bottom of the itinerary as well. Please reach out if you have any questions.

Kindergarten Screening:
We are having a Spring Session of Kindergarten Screening this year on May 17th, 18th, & 19th.
Schools will contact the parents of upcoming kindergarten students who have already registered for school.
As Teacher Appreciation Week comes to an end, we want to say THANK YOU to all of our AMAZING teachers in the district. They say it takes special people to do the jobs that you do, and we couldn't agree more. We appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to our students.
Weather permitting, we are hoping for a giant slip n slide party with a BBQ! Free to all students.

A message from Lori Olson, Interim Superintendent:
Due to the many impacts of this recent snowstorm, we will be cancelling school for Monday, April 25, 2022. All buildings will be closed this day, and only our maintenance staff will be working during this emergency.
Currently, electricity is down in all our buildings with no estimate of when it will be restored. The City of Williston has also informed us that they will not begin clearing school routes until Monday morning at the earliest.
We will continue to monitor these situations and will let you know on Monday if school will be impacted again on Tuesday.
