Mark Your Calendars! Upcoming Events at Willow Lake: – Kindergarten Orientation & Ice Cream Social (June 30) – Back-to-School Night (August 29) – E-Learning Day (September 18) – Fall Break (Oct 7-11) |
School Lunch Later this month, the state is expected to approve the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) English/Spanish for WTS for the 2024-2025 school year. CEP means that all students in grades K-8 are eligible to receive healthy breakfasts and lunches daily at no charge to families. K-8 students who wish to purchase extra and a la carte items must pay for these items separately. This can be done by setting up a MyPaymentsPlus account. See more information about MyPaymentsPlus below. |
AYS At Your School Child Services (AYS) provides childcare at Willow Lake from 7:00 a.m. – 7:30 a.m. and from 2:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. You may register your student at the AYS central office. They are located at 4701 N. Keystone Ave suite 475 You can also sign-up online at: http://www.ayskids.org/registration.html |
Transportation Your bus assignment information will be available on Skyward shortly before the first day of school. For all Transportation information, please visit the Transportation website: https://www.msdwt.k12.in.us/transportation/ . Our district uses Infofinder, an online transportation information system, to allow students and families to find bus stop locations, bus numbers, and approximate pick-up and drop-off times. Families may look up bus information directly in Infofinder. This should help eliminate complexity and confusion, particularly at the beginning of the school year. If after reviewing your individual information and you find that you need clarification, please contact the Transportation Department: (317) 254-5510. |
