STUDENT SUPPLIES
Please review the supply lists.
Any student who has not received a WCPSS chromebook will be assigned one when school begins.
STUDENT DEVICES
ALL students have either been issued or will be issued a WCPSS Device for use. Students should no longer bring their personal device for use.
We will share specific device distribution information in August for students who are both eligible to receive a WCPSS device or who are eligible to exchange a current WCPSS device for a new one.
Although WCPSS devices will not be used in every class every day, students will need to bring their devices, fully charged, daily. We also recommend that students bring a personal set of headphones to use when directed by teachers.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION ATTIRE
Students will not be required to change for PE. However, all students should wear exercise-appropriate clothes and shoes on days that students have PE. Teachers will review examples of safe, appropriate attire with students in the first weeks of school.
7TH GRADE IMMUNIZATION REQUIREMENTS
According to state law, all rising 7th grade students must present record of completed Tdap and Meningitis vaccinations in order to attend school. If you have any questions regarding this and/or whether or not student records are on file, please contact Ms. Pam Morrison at pmorrison@wcpss.net.
