Please Complete Daily Attestations by 7 a.m.

All parents/guardians of students who attend school in-person must continue to complete a daily attestation for their student prior to arriving at the school site. Students will not be allowed to enter the school without a completed attestation.

To help speed up the daily check-in process, we are asking families to please complete the daily attestation by 7 a.m. each day. This is due to ongoing delays with the system the District is using.

Each school day, an email will continue to be automatically sent to the contact designated as “Parent 1” in Skyward (for students with more than one family of record, the message will only go to Parent 1).

If you also signed-up to receive the daily attestation form by text message this message will now be sent at 5 a.m.

Thank you for your help in ensuring that students can safely enter our buildings.

Incoming Kindergarten Student Assessment

In order to secure a spot for your incoming kindergartner’s spring assessment, you must register your child. Information from this spring assessment will be used to determine class placement for your child. Once your child is registered, your school will contact you to schedule an assessment appointment. This assessment is also used to identify students who will be invited to our no cost ISF sponsored Pre-K Summer School. It is important that your child does not miss out on this opportunity!

To begin the registration process please visit new student enrollment, https://www.issaquah.wednet.edu/schools/enrollment.
