Dear White Salmon Families,
We hope this letter finds you well. Over the past few weeks, we have worked closely with the local health department and regional superintendents to develop a plan to bring small groups of students on campus. Our district staff has identified and prioritized the students with the highest need from our most vulnerable and sensitive groups. There are specific health guidelines in place we will follow to provide safety for students and staff. Lastly, we are working towards bringing back K-6 students into a hybrid model with board approval when state and local health department measures are met.
We thank you for your ongoing support and will continue to share with you updated information regarding our reopening plans.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jerry Lewis
