NO PARKING OUTSIDE FRENCH SCHOOL

When dropping off or picking up your kids each day, please keep in mind our French neighbors next door and do NOT park outside their lobby or school building. Please drive around to the WYIS side and park in our parking lot. EFIW (French School) students and staff need a safe passage to and from their building, just like our families do. Thank you for showing respect and consideration to our French neighbors by not parking in front of their lobby or building.

If you have children returning to WYIS for the 2023-2024 school year, please complete the re-enrollment process in the PowerSchool Parent Portal. Re-enrollment is currently open and goes until Sunday, April 30. Additional re-enrollment information has been emailed to parents.
