Washakie County
School District #1

2020-21 School Re-entry

August 13, 2020

Dear School Community

Washakie #1 has received approval for our Re-entry Plan from both Washakie County Public Health and the Wyoming Department of Education.  The approval process is rigorous and comprehensive requiring that districts meet Smart Start Plan Assurances set forth in WDE Smart Start Guidance.  The Wyoming Department of Education Smart Start Guidance document is posted in the links below – it closely aligns with our ideas. 

August 18 will be the first day of school for all schools except East Side which will start on August 20 due to current staffing issues.  Students opting to attend Washakie #1 Online (the district’s fully accredited virtual school) will also start August 18.  

Every employee at Washakie #1 is fully committed to providing a safe environment for our students.  We are confident that all students will experience high levels of learning.  And we are so excited to have them back in school – thanks for sharing your children with us!
