- Fees for each activity are in PowerSchool. Please pay using your child's account, not cash.
- If you have questions or need further help, please contact Ms. Xiong at susie.xiong@wyischina.com.
SECONDARY ATTENDANCE EXPECTATIONS
Secondary teachers record attendance in PowerSchool for students who are both on campus and off campus.
- Students outside Wuhan - For students who are off campus and learning online, we expect them to join Zoom calls and participate with the teacher and on-campus students synchronously as much as is possible and available. We expect all students in an Asian time zone to participate in class synchronously.
- Students in Wuhan - Students currently in Wuhan are expected to attend classes at WYIS unless their specific situation has been discussed and approved by either Dr. Carlson or Dr. Rehm.
Our hope is for all students to return to WYIS and begin learning in person as soon as possible. We know every student’s situation is different, so please talk with your child’s teacher or Dr. Rehm with any exceptions we should consider or any other questions you have.
MAP TESTING FOR FALL
MAP testing for on-campus students in EC5 to Grade 10 will be from October 7 – November 6, 2020.
More information to come soon about exact dates/times for each grade level.
