					<description><![CDATA[Weatherford ISD and its campuses uses ParentSquare to communicate with families through email, text, phone call and app messages!

With ParentSquare, families can choose what methods they want to receive communication through. By default, all families will receive digest – or recap – email and text messages at 6 p.m. daily, eliminating the clutter caused by dozens of messages.

All families are sent registration emails at the start of the school year, but they can also register without this message. Families can visit www.parentsquare.com/signin to register with either the email or phone number they have on file with their child’s school.

					<description><![CDATA[Weatherford ISD joins 1,025 school districts throughout Texas to celebrate January as School Board Recognition Month.

Our school board members are volunteers who shoulder critical responsibilities and often make difficult choices for our district, all without pay. Their goal is always focused on the future success of the children in our district. Celebrating School Board Recognition Month is one way to say thank you for all they do.

Serving as a link between the community and classroom, school board members are elected to establish the policies that provide the framework for public schools. The Weatherford ISD board is responsible for an annual budget of over $80 million, approximately 8,100 students, over 1,000 employees, and 11 campuses.

Board members serving Weatherford ISD are: 

Mike Guest, Board President
S. Brian Catlin, Board Vice President
Greg Shaw, Board Secretary
Adam Feriend, Board Member
Jeff Ford, Board Member
Tiffany Fowler, Board Member
Weldon "Wally" Wallace, Board Member]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[With this afternoon's forecast calling for thunderstorms, lightning, and possible flash flooding, we will be closely monitoring weather conditions throughout the day.  

Weatherford ISD subscribes to Perry Weather, a service that includes access to a meteorologist for our area.  We also follow the weather on local media stations and use several weather apps.  

In the event a severe weather warning (such as lightning) is in progress at our school release time, we will hold all students in the building until the threat is lifted.  In this situation, we will also hold buses.  As a result, bus transportation may be delayed.  

Should it become necessary to communicate with parents this afternoon regarding the weather, we will use our SchoolMessenger system to send calls/emails/texts to parents and post information on the Weatherford ISD website and social media sites (Facebook and Twitter).  

We appreciate your support as we work to ensure the safety of our students, parents, and staff.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When we monitor road conditions during bad weather events, safety is our first consideration.  We are currently experiencing changing road conditions due to the snow/sleet that began falling around noon today.  As a result, WISD will release at 2:30 pm today, January 6, 2017. 

By releasing students early, we allow our bus drivers to have maximum visibility to avoid problem areas on the road – especially on rural bridges and overpasses.  In addition, an early release gives our high school students the opportunity to drive before road conditions worsen. 

Buses will run their usual routes.  Parents of bus riders should expect their children home approximately 1 hour earlier than normal.   

Our maintenance department is currently treating sidewalks and campus entrances.  Parents are advised to use caution in school parking lots and on all campus sidewalks.  

All after school activities, including Kids Unite and athletic practices, are also cancelled due to extremely low temperatures and potential precipitation.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We are beginning to monitor weather changes that may occur tomorrow because there are currently several weather models that show the potential for snow or snow flurries. While we don’t expect that we’ll need to alter tomorrow’s school schedule, we do know it will be extremely cold and windy.

Your safety will always be our top priority when we are faced with decisions about school closings due to weather. Below is our process for determining school closings or early dismissals.

The following factors are considered when we make a decision that alters the normal school schedule:
• Information on road conditions and whether buses/cars can safely travel
• The existing accumulation of snow or ice
• The rate and expected duration of precipitation
• Parking lot and sidewalk conditions
• Weather predictions

When changes to the normal school schedule occur, use our SchoolMessenger system to notify families by call, email, and text.  We will also post information on our website, Facebook and Twitter accounts, and notify local TV and radio stations.

For more information on our inclement weather process, please visit the Parent Link and then click on Bad Weather.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Weatherford ISD’s Healthy Kids summer lunch program kicks off on Monday, June 9th.  Thru the program, free lunches will be available to all area children who are 18 years old and younger. The program runs through August 8th.  
 
Healthy Kids is administered by the Weatherford ISD Child Nutrition department in partnership with All Saints’ Anglican Church, First United Methodist Church, Grace First Presbyterian Church, North Side Baptist Church, and Westwood Christian Fellowship.  Julie Enlow serves as the WISD volunteer coordinator for the program.  Volunteers for Healthy Kids pick up the meals from Ikard Elementary and deliver them to the feeding sites. Volunteers may also sponsor fun activities, including reading programs.
 
Over the course of the summer, children will enjoy a variety of hot baked entrées – including taco sticks, pizza, and sandwiches – along with fruits and vegetables. Funded through a Texas Department of Agriculture program, the meals are prepared by the school district and meet all federal and state nutrition guidelines. 
 
Participating locations are First United Methodist Church, Ikard Elementary, Seguin Elementary, Tison Middle School, Travis Campus, Wright Elementary, and Western Lake Estates.  Meals will be served at noon at all locations except First United Methodist Church where lunch will be served at 12:30.  
 
A complete list of locations and times is available on the Weatherford ISD Child Nutrition website.  
 
For more information about the Healthy Kids program, please contact WISD Child Nutrition at 817-598-2991.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I want to thank our students, parents, and staff for your cooperation and support these past few days.   We have tried to provide you with timely information because we know school closings may cause problems for families.  

The following factors are considered when we make a decision that alters the normal school schedule:

•    Information on road conditions and whether buses/cars  can safely travel
•    The existing accumulation of snow or ice
•    The rate and expected duration of precipitation
•    Parking lot and sidewalk conditions
•    Weather predictions

Your safety will always be our top priority when we are faced with decisions about school closings due to weather.  

The ice storm that began last Thursday was more severe than anticipated and created unsafe travel conditions that resulted in Weatherford ISD closing for 4 days.  With these closings, we will now use our bad weather makeup dates of June 2 and 3, 2014.  Our school closings this week will not affect the graduation date for Weatherford High School. 

Weatherford ISD will apply for a waiver from the Texas Education Agency to excuse days missed beyond our scheduled bad weather days.    

Campuses are now in the process of adjusting exam schedules or student performances, as needed.  Parents will be notified of any changes at their child’s campus.  We appreciate your patience as we work through any issues that result from our closings.  

We look forward to resuming our regular school schedule and are hoping for a mild winter!

Dr. Jeffrey Hanks
Superintendent]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[While our roads are considerably better this afternoon, some roads in the northern and southern part of our district are still a concern.  

Buses will run 2 hours later than normal.  This allows our bus drivers to have maximum visibility to avoid problem areas on the road. It also keeps students out of the pre-dawn cold.   

First Student is currently assessing the road conditions on all bus routes.  There will be some bus routes that are inaccessible because of icy road conditions.  Parents will be notified this evening or early tomorrow morning if it has been determined buses cannot safely travel to their location.  

Pre-K morning classes will also be delayed for 2 hours with a normal pick up time.  Afternoon Pre-K classes will operate on a normal schedule.  

Due to the delayed start, campuses will not serve breakfast but will be providing lunch.

Your safety remains our highest priority. Our Maintenance Department has worked throughout the day to remove as much ice as possible and the delayed start will enable them to ensure entries to our buildings are safe.  While most roadways are clear and safe for travel, parents should use discretion if it is unsafe to travel from their home.  Parents of teenage drivers should also use discretion and advise their children to use extreme caution if driving to school. 

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and patience as we work to re-open school and we look forward to seeing our WISD Roos tomorrow!]]></description>
