Arrow Days Timeline of Events!
The commercial food industry is experiencing unprecedented labor shortages due to Covid-19. As a result of these shortages, many manufacturers cannot produce the products that we and other school districts throughout the country normally use. We are not aware of these shortages until the day of our food order delivery. Due to the shortages changes will be made as needed to the menu. To keep communication to our staff and parents as current as possible, we will only be posting menus through the school website. Under each school a menu section is available for the most current and up to date menu. Thank you for your continued patience with this issue.
For Apple iPhone users, there is a new update to the Watertown School app. You can find this in the App Store by searching for Watertown School District 14-4. Download our upgraded app for notices, district and schools information and other really good stuff.
To Parents:
The restrooms at the high school have all been remodeled.The construction crew is working now to open the last two remaining restrooms. Recently a few students have been vandalizing our new restrooms by pulling the soap dispensers off the wall and removing them. We need your help. Please talk to your child about taking care of our school. It belongs to all of us. If your child knows who’s responsible for the damage, please ask your daughter or son to share that information with an assistant principal or the School Resource Officer.
Thank you,
Mr. Brandsrud
