Dear Watertown Public Schools Families and Faculty,
This was a busy week for the Watertown Public Schools with open houses, vaccination clinics and lots of work happening across classrooms. In addition, it was wonderful to see so many families at the Fall Festival last week; the weather was just perfect!
As a friendly reminder I have included the September 22 Transportation Update Letter. If there are any changes to student transportation next week, families will be notified as soon as possible by the bus company or central office directly.
I hope you have a restful weekend WPS!
Sincerely,
Dr. V
