PARENT SUPPORT CIRCLES
Tuesday, February 9th 5:00-6:30 pm
Thursday, February 25th 5:00-6:30 pm
As a result of COVID-19, adults with school-aged children have been asked to provide a great deal of support to students. A common request from parents is to increase their support network during this challenging time. A support circle is a safe environment in which parents can talk about the stress and worries of the current pandemic situation with other parents. Trained facilitators and periodic guest speakers lead a conversation about relevant topics.
How Do I Join?
Registration for the circle is very important before you attend. You will be given information about the process, what to expect if you join, and rules about privacy. Please call 218-390-1707 or 218-380-4923 to start the registration process.
The Willow River Junior High Math League team finished their season in January and had the best finish in the past three seasons! It was a unique season, with all practices and competitions held through Google Meets. This year's members were dedicated enough to attend these during their Wednesday afternoons and had some great successes. Members that made every event were Sonja Helfman, Sonya Schaefer, and Gabe Sorensen. Sonja was this year's team leader in points! Congratulations on a successful season and we'll be back next year for in-person Math League! -Mr. Rushmeyer #WeRWillow

Attention all winter MLWR athletes:
Winter sports are a go! The governor has allowed practices to begin on Monday, January 4th. Due to our current learning model, only VARSITY Hockey & Basketball teams will begin practices on the 4th. We are hopeful games will begin January 14th. If both ML and WR shift into a hybrid model of learning, lower level teams may begin to practice/have competitions. This will be announced when it occurs. Remember, our biggest priority is keeping our kids healthy and protecting a varsity season! Please reach out to coaches or ADs with any questions you may have. #MLWRRebels
Starting Jan 4, Osprey Wilds will be opening its doors as an Academic Support Center for students in 6-12th grade. Students can enjoy their own workspace to attend their virtual classes and complete schoolwork. Academic coaches will be there for support and to lead small activities throughout the day. Space is very limited to ensure all COVID-19 precautions and regulations are in place. Learn more at https://buff.ly/37a0k9m
