WCC District BearLand Weekly! Week 3
Dear Parents,
We want to address something that is currently circulating on social media.
On August 20th the FBI in Little Rock issued a general awareness statement to law enforcement agencies about information they received regarding a threat of a possible school shooting in Kentucky on August 28 and in Arkansas on August 29. The FBI could NOT verify the source of the threat.
White County Central is NOT aware of any specific threat to our district.
We assure you that we take your child’s safety seriously. District personnel will continue communicating with state agencies and law enforcement over the next week. We will take all steps necessary to protect your child.

The Elementary is selling these T-shirts. Short sleeve, long sleeve, and hoodies are available. They are for all grade levels. All building secretaries have order forms. They are due with payment by Sept. 3rd.
K-8 morning car riders: In order to move our lines more efficiently and to avoid back up on the highway we are making changes to our morning line up. We will have staff members to direct you in the morning. We will follow the same line up as we have in the afternoon. This will start tomorrow morning. This will allow us to release more students at once. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work to streamline our processes.
We are aware of some new traffic problems that have happened as this school year has started. Our school continues to grow, and with that growth we are experiencing some growth pains. This of course is a great problem for us to address. We appreciate your patience as we try to iron out some of these logistical problems!
