Watervliet Public Schools apologizes for the errant robo-calls late last evening. This was not a result of WPS error, but rather a technical glitch from our vendor.
We alerted the vendor of the issue when they opened this morning. They made the fix, stress-tested their systems, and have assured us that this error will not happen again. Additionally, you will see a Watervliet Schools' phone number on future automated calls, not an Arkansas or Virginia number.
Again, we are sorry for the inconvenience and our provider has assured us it will not happen again.
Middle School Dance is Friday, October 13th from 3-5 pm. Cost is $5 per student, location is the MS gym.
We regret to inform you that the Homecoming Parade scheduled for this afternoon has been canceled due to the likelihood of poor weather conditions. The football game will take place at 7:00 PM as planned.
