School staff use SchoolStatus to send emails and texts to parents. Parents will receive a weekly Parent News from Mrs. Johnson, the principal, every Sunday evening. Melissa Hedrick, the parent liaison, sends out PTO News every Tuesday and a Parent Liaison Newsletter every Thursday. To stay up to date on school news, it is important to stay subscribed to SchoolStatus.

As of January 31, 2024, parents can unsubscribe or resubscribe to emails sent through SchoolStatus. Please do NOT unsubscribe from any SchoolStatus messages, as you may miss important communications from the school or division, including emergency and inclement weather messages. If you do unsubscribe in error, please follow the steps below to resubscribe. The school cannot do it for you.

Resubscribe Email

Once a recipient has unsubscribed, PWCS staff cannot resubscribe them without that recipient taking action. The parent or guardian must initiate the resubscribe by scanning the QR Code below or by emailing: [email protected]
