  • If your child is new to WBEC

    If your child will be coming to WBEC for the 2017-2018 school year, we want to welcome you and share a few brief notes. Staff members are not required to be on campus until July 14th. Upon their arrival, they will be doing staff development for the first few days. You should get a call from the teacher to set up a home visit which will take place during the time period between July 20 and July 24. This will be the first communication you can expect from our staff. During the home visit, you will receive a great deal of additional information and have a chance to get to know your child’s teachers. July 25th through July 27th are set aside as Beginner’s Days. Each teacher will divide the class in thirds and each third of the class will come to school on a different day. This allows the teachers and students to get to know each other as the students learn the routines. Please plan to come to the auditorium at 7:00 a.m. on your scheduled Beginner’s Day for a few minutes to meet with the Site Administrator, Mr. Ken Roess, for a brief orientation. All students attend on July 28th and thereafter. Again, the faculty and staff of WBEC welcome you and are excited to partner with you as your child begins their educational journey.
