Our #BeTheChange assembly was a HUGE hit with our Tiger students. Thank you Mr Kevin for arranging for Waterford Jr High to be on the tour so our students could hear the inspirational message from Grammy nominated artist, Saul Paul!

What an amazing Club Rush at the Jr High this year! Students were enthusiastic about signing up for clubs, including anime, gaming, animation, cooking, baking, phast JV, leadership, friday night live, drama, fitness, and more! All of the Jr High clubs are run by staff who volunteer their time, and they provide valuable opportunities for students to connect and explore their interests. Shout out to Superintendent Aldaco who came out to give us a hand with student sign ups!

It's GAME DAY for our varsity football and cheer teams! The Wildcats will be facing the Big Valley Christian Lions at our WHS stadium at 7pm tonight. Join us for our first home home game and military appreciation night. PS. Bring your appetite and support the WHS Boosters at our snack bar!

Join us in celebrating our Waterford USD bus drivers and their many years of safe driving! We are so happy to have such an awesome team of drivers, who are dedicated to making every trip fun, cheerful, and SAFE for our students! They are pictured here sitting in one of our brand NEW bluebird buses, which are equipped with 3 point safety belts and have lower emissions. Also pictured is bus mechanic Luis Perez, who keeps us running smoothly every day! Here are some fun facts from our bus drivers: - A school bus weighs the same as 700 kindergarteners! - Just one tire rotation on those massive bluebird busses rolls the bus forward 10'6"!

We are so proud of our Tiger and Wildcat athletes, who ran a half marathon/marathon during the Modesto Marathon last weekend! All their hard work preparing over the last SIX months paid off.

Check out our #tiger🐯 volleyball team dyeing their jerseys with coach Reed today. This is the FIRST boys volleyball team in school history!

We have lots of new books in the library, come check them out - literally!
