Hello, This is Kraig Hissong, Superintendent, with some information regarding internet access. The district recently purchased hotspots through Sprint to help students access the internet that did not have connection at home. After providing hotspots to those families, we have 12 hotspots remaining that will be available to any student/family on a first come, first serve basis. The cost for the lease of the hotspot is $20 for April and May or $180 for 12 months. That is unlimited data, with no cap or slow down speeds for $15/month. This would be something to consider if you would like to try a Sprint hotspot or if you have multiple children in your household who are having trouble accessing the internet at the same time. Please call the school at 937-465-1060 between 8 and 3 pm to find out more information or to request a hotspot while our supply last. Thank you.
On April 20, 2020, at 8:20 pm, or 2020 in military time, WL-S lit up the Tiger stadium for 20 minutes while over 100 cars drove through honking and showing their support for our seniors! As the stadium and scoreboard lit the sky, we were all reminded of the bright future ahead for our seniors. We were hopeful for a time when we can all come back together to celebrate your dedication, accomplishments and resilience. We miss you, we are proud of you, and we stand together with you in this very difficult time. Here is the video from last evening. We are #tigerstrong. #seniors2020 https://youtu.be/VV1T7RzRehI

Seniors,
Tonight we drove by the stadium to salute you and all you have accomplished. We know this isn’t an ideal end to your academic, musical, artistic and sports careers at WL-S, but we hope this small tribute to your accomplishments helps you know how much we appreciate your resiliency in these trying times. There will be a video tomorrow sharing the outpouring of support from our whole community.
With love,
The entire West Liberty-Salem community
