Hello,
There has been some confusion regarding WHS yearbooks. The original message that went out was for WEMS. The WHS, high school yearbooks will be ready by Thursday 5/23/24. They are all hard cover. The cost is $50. If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Yaw-Ruiz at Williams High School.
Good afternoon 8th grade families,
1) We are excited to announce our 8th grade promotion ceremony. The event will take place on Thursday May 23rd at 6PM in the WEMS auditorium. Doors open at 5:30PM. The ceremony will last approximately 30 minutes.
2)Each 8th grader was handed a stack of TEN invitations for their family and friends. We are asking that each family only bring ten individuals as seating is limited and we are expecting a full house.
3) Students have been encouraged to "dress to impress" for the promotion ceremony. Please work with your child to identify some "nice" clothing for this special event.
If you have any questions regarding promotion, please contact Mr. Wollman at 928-635-4428 x305 or by email at awollman@wusd2.org
Greetings WUSD # 2: Please see an important message from our Transportation Team:
Monday and Tuesday, May 20th and 21st, there will be no morning driver for route 2, so your pick up time will be moved back approximately 30 minutes. Two buses will leave the high school at 7:40 am and pick up students on the south side of town. One will stop at 9th and Oak, and then travel along Grant street (starting at 9th) then down Route 66 to pick up everyone along that portion of the route. The second bus will pick up students all along Sheridan and up 6th St. One bus will drive around Morse street on the North side of WEMS to pick up those students. Please be out at your stop and ready to board the bus at 7:40. You may have to wait a couple of minutes. The driver will not wait. Golf course students will be picked up in a District vehicle (Ford Explorer) by two District Office employees. This is for Monday and Tuesday MORNING ONLY, May 20th and 21st . Thank you for your understanding.

Greetings WUSD # 2: Special Transportation Update, TODAY ONLY
All routes will remain unchanged today except for Route 1-Parks (bus #14) and Route 2-In Town route (bus # 13).
There is no route # 2, bus # 13 today, therefore:
Route # 1, bus # 14 will make 2 runs today.
The first run will be the town route (nothing changes for this route except the driver and the bus # that drops them off)
The second run will be the Parks run (which will be 20-30 mins late). We apologize for the delay in delivering your students. We are down a driver today. All students who ride route 1, bus # 14 (Parks run) will wait at WEMS with supervision provided, in the long hallway, until the first run is made and the bus returns to WEMS.
Golf Course area bus riders will arrive in a school Ford Explorer by 2 staff members from the District Office. Thank you for your patience.
WEMS PTSA rocks! Thank you for a wonderful dance last night for our students and families!
