At South School we teach our Little Panthers about the power of YET. When I come to something I can't do, I remind myself that I can't do it YET. With effort, perseverance, and asking for help when I need it, I will get it!

Good evening
Due to staffing shortfalls related to illness, we must close all Watervliet Public Schools on Tuesday, January 25th.
Tomorrow will be treated like a snow day, with no students or staff reporting.
School leaders will work to make plans for Wednesday and beyond. The options we will be considering include:
* opening schools with limited or delayed bus runs;
* opening schools with families needing to provide their own transportation;
* keeping schools closed through Thursday,
* or providing remote instruction for Wednesday and Thursday.
You will receive a message from Watervliet Schools with these next steps.
Again, please look for information tomorrow afternoon regarding our next steps.
Thank you


Due to inclement weather, all Watervliet Schools are closed on Friday, January 7, 2022. We plan to reopen to our regular schedule on Monday, January 10th.
