As a reminder, all parents/guardians must complete the annual information update before their children return to school each year. This ensures that we know you are returning, and that we have accurate student and parent information in case of emergencies. Students will not receive their schedules or class assignments until this important update is completed. Please log into your Infinite Campus (IC) Parent Portal to complete this update if you have not done so already. To access the update, scroll to the bottom of the IC homepage > online registration > required annual update. If you need any help accessing your parent portal, you can call the district office between 8am-4pm on weekdays: 209-874-1809. #WUSD

It's National Fentanyl Awareness Day, but today is not just about Fentanyl.
The illegal drug supply is constantly changing. You can't trust anything that isn't prescribed to you by a doctor. Street pills and powders are a mix of potent opioids, stimulators, tranquilizers, sedatives, and random byproducts. Many of the products and mixes can be lethal.

🎉✨ Happy Lunar New Year! ✨🎉
As we welcome the Year of the Horse in 2026, let’s take a moment to celebrate and learn about this important cultural tradition observed by millions around the world! 🌙🐎
Lunar New Year, also known as Spring Festival or Tet, marks the beginning of the lunar calendar and symbolizes new beginnings, family unity, and hope for the future. It’s celebrated with traditions like:
🧧 Red envelopes (lì xì or hóngbāo) filled with money to bring good luck.
🥟 Delicious foods like dumplings, sticky rice cakes, and spring rolls.
🧨 Fireworks and lion dances to chase away bad luck and welcome prosperity.
🏮 Lanterns and decorations in red and gold to bring happiness and wealth.
This year, students and families in our district are invited to explore the rich cultural heritage of Lunar New Year. Here are some ways to join the celebration:
📚 Read stories about the Lunar New Year traditions of different cultures.
🎨 Create your own lanterns or paper cuttings to decorate your home.
🌍 Learn a new greeting: “Chúc Mừng Năm Mới” (Vietnamese), “Gōng Xǐ Fā Cái” (Mandarin), or “Seollal Jal Bonaeseyo” (Korean).
Let’s honor this season of renewal by embracing diversity and fostering inclusivity in our school community. Wishing all who celebrate a joyful and prosperous Lunar New Year! 🌟🐎
