Winfield Vikings -- We’re thrilled to kick off another fantastic school year with you. Here’s what you need to know:
- Wednesday, August 13th: It’s a special day for our 6th and 9th graders! They will have a half day to help them transition smoothly into their new school environments.
- Thursday, August 14th: This marks the official first day of school for all students from Pre-K through 12th grade. Get ready for an exciting year of learning and growth!
A Special Welcome from WPD
As you embark on this new journey, don’t forget to say “Hi” to our friendly officers. They’re looking forward to meeting each of you and helping start your school year with positivity and support. We are pleased to announce that local officers from the Winfield Police Department (WPD) will be present at each school location. They’ll be there on both the 13th and 14th to extend warm greetings and wish you all a wonderful year ahead.
We wish you all a successful and enjoyable school year filled with learning, new friendships, and exciting opportunities. Go Vikings! #WinningInWinfield
We’re excited to roll out a new tool that will simplify how we communicate with you. Rooms, built right into our Winfield USD 465 app and website, offers secure and safe two-way messaging. This addition allows USD 465 to bring the community closer together. From messages to educators, to events, to lunch menus, and more - everything can now live in one place.
Why Rooms?
- One place for every message. No more juggling multiple communication apps, flipping between inboxes, or remembering different logins.
- Text notifications. You’ll get notified automatically of new messages even if you haven’t downloaded our district app.
- Safe and secure. Built-in moderation and other safety tools allow us to ensure safety of all communications, at all times.
What to Expect:
- Rooms will become our primary method for all communication between staff, coaches, families, and teachers.
- More details about the Rooms launch date will be provided soon.
We’re excited to bring our communication into one clear, connected experience for you.
FFA members do not need to purchase a chapter shirt — it is included in their dues this year. However, if they would like to order a hoodie or sweatshirt, those will need to be purchased separately.
