We would like to remind families of the policies we are following per our Return to In-Person Learning Plan related to COVID-19 positive individuals:
Positive COVID-19 Diagnosis
ISOLATE: Stay home and away from others for at least 10 days after symptom onset and be fever free for 24 hours (without the use of medications) and have improvements in symptoms. If asymptomatic (without symptoms) isolate for 10 days beginning on test date.
If you have COVID-19, you must self-isolate regardless of vaccination status, previous infection, or lack of symptoms.
Recently the CDC updated their COVID guidelines for isolation time for positive individuals, however, at our recent school board meeting, it was decided we would continue with our current plan.
For more information and to read the plan, please visit our District Website https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/1413803/1.7.22_Amended_Return_to_In_Person_Plan.pdf


Come check out the North Dakota Juried Student Art Show at the James Memorial this month, the artist reception is on January 14th. We have seven students from the ASB Innovation Academy featured at the show.


With the unfortunate increase in violence, threats, cyberbullying, and disruptive social media “challenges” in schools throughout the country, the Williston Basin School District #7 would like to take a moment to remind families and students that our District takes a zero-tolerance approach to any misconduct of this nature. Please see the attached notice from the Interim Superintendent, Lori Olson, and the Director of Student Services, Wyndy McGinley.
