ASQ
The Woodson Household Survey is available on USD366.net. Click the menu tab at the top of the page and the link to the survey can be found under Food Service Information. You will need to download, enable editing & fill out the form. Once completed the form can be emailed to tohare@usd366.net or printed and taken to your student's attendance center. Completion of this form will waive the $50 per student technology fee!! Copies are available at attendance centers & the BOE!
Second Chance Physicals: Did your son or daughter fail to get their physical last spring? USD #366 will be offering free physicals on August 12 from 9:00 - 3:00 PM at the high school. Students wishing to have a physical must have a completed KSHSAA physical form with them at the time of physical. These physicals are for students in grades 6-12.
ENROLLMENT: Online enrollment began on July 26 and runs through August 6. In-person, enrollment will be August 3, 1 pm-8 pm, and August 4, 8 am-4 pm for the elementary and middle school students. The high school will enroll on August 4, 1 pm-8 pm, and August 5, 8 am-4 pm.
A district-wide technology fee has been added for the 2022 school year. The technology fee is $50 for every student in the school district. However, this fee will be waived for all students if our new Family Economic Survey is completed that is part of the enrollment process. All this application asks for is household income and the names of all individuals living in the residence.
Since there are no lunch applications this school year due to breakfast and lunch being free, the state has developed this survey to identify students who would have qualified for free lunch. The importance of free lunch students is due to the funding they generate for the school district in state aid and grant applications. The district took a big hit financially last year having fewer lunch applications turned in due to the timing of the free meals. The more students we get qualified the more resources will have to address the needs of our school district.
Sixth Grade Athletic Participation - All sixth-grade USD 366 students will be able to participate in all middle school sports activities, except for football, which is not allowed under KSHSAA rules. For students to participate in these activities they must have a physical on file and maintain grade eligibility. Physicals will be offered for free at the high school on August 12 from 9 am to noon. More information regarding physicals will be sent closer to the date. The first day that any practice can begin, high school or middle school is August 16.
