Staff report
In keeping with efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19, all Wimberley ISD campuses are closed through Friday, April 3. The closure affects all meetings, campus events, practices and extracurricular activities.
The situation was addressed in a letter from Superintendent Dwain York to all families with students enrolled in the district. York also said families should now have received email from the campus of their child or children regarding continuation of learning at home.
“On Monday and Tuesday, our teachers will finalize plans for online learning and the creation of instruction packet for students,” York said in the letter which went out March 21. “The plans will vary by grade level … The goal is to roll out these learning plans on Wednesday.”
York also addressed student nutrition, saying the district’s Child Nutrition Department will serve breakfast and lunch to students who qualify to receive free or reduced price meals.
“These families have been notified of the pickup schedule for meals,” York wrote, adding that during the next two weeks any breakfast or lunch meals that are not picked up will be taken to the First Baptist Church at 15951 Winters Mill Parkway where community families in need can pick them up after 1:15 p.m.
York also urged families to visit wimberleyisd.net for the latest news from the district.
