Today is IT appreciation day, and our amazing Information Technology team is more than deserving of our praise! These tech wizards are highly skilled, dedicated, and adaptable. They perform their tech magic every day, keeping all of our technology systems running and ensuring the best learning environment possible for our students. This summer, they put in long hours to rebuild the technology infrastructure at Moon School during construction while still providing support to the rest of our sites, distributing devices to staff and students, rostering curriculum and education technology tools for teachers, and more - and they did it all with a smile and an unmatched dedication to excellent customer service. We appreciate you! #RelationshipsMatter #WaterfordCares #WUSD

Today is International Literacy Day! Did you know one of the greatest indicators of the likelihood of a child's ability to read at grade level is school attendance? Missing school has a negative effect on all learning but is particularly detrimental during primary school because of the negative effect it has on literacy. In fact, by third grade, only 17% of students who missed 18 or more days of school during their kindergarten and first-grade year could read at grade level. #WaterfordCares #EveryDayCounts #WaterfordReads
