For High School & Junior High Students:
In order to do online or in-person registration, parents will need to be able to log in to PowerSchool. If you can't remember your log in information, you will need to either come to in-person registration or email our technology supervisor, Jon. reynaj@wjsd.org (Keep in mind that he will be helping at in-person registration, so there may be a delay in email responses.)
https://wjsd.powerschool.com/public/home.html
Be sure to look at each student's class schedule. If changes need to be made, come to in-person registration or email Mr. Gemar davidgemar@wjsd.org.
Mr. Gemar, has created a couple of videos to help with registration! The first video shows how to find the registration information on PowerSchool. The second video shows where you can pay online fees on PowerSchool. There is a 3% fee for using a credit card on this PowerSchool fee payment option. Fees can be paid with cash or check at registration or at the office of your child's school. NO VENMO PAYMENTS FOR REGISTRATION FEES!

West Jefferson Volleyball Girls! If you haven't already, let Coach Lori Eddins know if you're coming to camp! She needs each athlete's adult T-shirt size and what grade they are entering in the fall. (The junior high camp will only be for 7th & 8th graders this year.)
Camp release forms need to be turned in when athletes arrive at camp on the first day.
Print the release form here: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/.../Volleyball_Camp...

While the new track is being installed and the track material is setting up in the evenings, we need EVERYONE to stay off the track and football field. No one should have any reason to enter the fenced area. The anticipated day of completion is Monday, August 4th, depending on the weather.
Also, we have had community members using our facilities to walk their dogs. We have already had to clean dog poop off our brand-new football turf. This is unacceptable! Responsible pet owners would not allow their animals to defecate on school property where our kids are going to be playing. If anyone sees this happen, please report it to the district office immediately!
Thank you!
Tuesday's sprints will be in the Panther Den, Thursday's sprints will be in the parking lot!
With the installation of the new track, please stay on the outside of the fence surrounding the football field and track until at least Monday, August 4th (weather permitting.)
High school sports start in less than a month! If you haven't been doing summer workouts, now is the time to start!!
