USD 465 Families,
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.

It's almost that time. We can't wait to have students back in the building. Please take a moment to review updated policies. We will go over these policies and expectations with students in the first couple days of school. We are confident these new policies will improve safety and increase student success. Handbooks can be found on the school website. #WinningInWinfield

ATTENTION: WHS will be requiring students who drive on campus to obtain parking permits. Permits can be picked up in the main office at WHS starting July 21st. You will need to provide your driver's license, proof of insurance, and tag number. $2 will be charged to your student account for the permit. If additional permits are needed for other vehicles, they will be $1 each. Failure to get a properly displayed permit by September 2, will result in possible fines or having parking privileges revoked.
The permits are a safety measure to help administrators easily identify which vehicles should be on campus throughout the school day. https://forms.gle/D6sTsWLHhV63UHmq5
