School Registration is available online or in-person.
How do I do online registration?
From www.wjsd.org, click on the PowerSchool Tab. Login. Once you are in your parent/guardian account, click on “Forms” and then “Enrollment Forms.” Complete each form for each student and be sure to submit them. You know you’re finished when each of the forms has an July/August 2024 date on them.
What do I do if I can’t login to PowerSchool?
Contact:
Jon Reyna - reynaj@wjsd.org or David Gemar - davidgemar@wjsd
Why do I have to redo the same forms every year?
Things can change from year to year. We need to make sure we have updated information from you, especially contact information. Also, sometimes our policies and procedures change, so be sure to read through them before submitting the agreement forms.
How can I pay school fees?
There are a couple ways to pay your student’s fees. 1. Cash or check at In-Person Registration or at the school office. 2. Credit card or debit card on PowerSchool. Those paying with a card online will be charged approximately a 4% convenience fee by the company we use to process the cards. DO NOT USE VENMO!
Can I pay my lunch fees online?
Yes! This year we are able to accept payments for lunch fees on PowerSchool, the same as other fees. If you use cash or check, pay directly to the Lunchroom. If you use a card, use PowerSchool. Those paying with a card online will be charged approximately a 4% convenience fee by the company we use to process the cards. DO NOT USE VENMO! You will also be able to keep track of your lunch balance on PowerSchool.

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students
ISAT testing will be taking place at our school this week.
Beginning Monday, April 8th, our third through sixth-grade students will participate in the ISAT (Idaho Standard Achievement Test) testing in Math and Reading.
Additionally, our fifth-grade students will also be required to take a Science assessment.
The ISA testing is an essential tool to measure your child's academic progress and provides valuable insights into their strengths and areas for improvement.
By participating in these assessments, we aim to ensure that each student receives the support they need to thrive academically.
To help your child perform their best during the testing period, I encourage you to ensure they get a good night's rest the day before the tests and have a nutritious breakfast.
Please reassure your child that these assessments allow them to showcase their skills and knowledge. They shouldn't be stressful and are shorter this year than last year.
Remind them to approach the tests calmly and confidently and to do their best without feeling pressured.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the ISAT testing or need additional support for your child, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We are here to support both you and your child throughout this process. Thank you for your continued support in your child's education.
Mr. Johnson
