This summer, the Ellis Police Department partnered with local businesses to gather school supplies for our local schools. With the help of our Community Members, we managed to gather around 80 pounds of school supplies! These supplies were then donated to St. Mary's School as well as USD388, who will take care of distributing the supplies to those in need. We are excited to make this a yearly occurrence and look forward to gathering even more next year! Thank you all for helping equip our students for success this year!

This message is to inform you that the implementation of the Random Drug Testing Policy and required drug testing consent form is temporarily suspended by the USD 388 Board of Education. This policy was initially implemented to deter substance abuse and help keep students safe. After concerns about the procedures of the drug testing were raised by district patrons, the USD 388 Board of Education determined further discussions with stakeholders will ensure that procedures are thoroughly and thoughtfully developed.
Thank you to those who have raised questions and provided valuable feedback about the policy. We will continue to work together to foster a safe and supportive environment for our students.
I apologize for the lack of timely communication regarding this topic. I am committed to improving communication about important issues with district patrons. Thank you for your continued support.
Janice Wilson
Superintendent
There will be a special board meeting on August 16th at 5:30 at the EHS library to discuss the Random drug testing policy.

WGS Parents
We will have students bring their supplies to school the first day of school Aug. 22nd. If you would like to come in with them that is fine. We will have doors open at 7:30.
The construction is almost complete at WGS and the JR/SR High school! We will be right on time for school to begin on August 22nd. A huge shout out to our custodial crew for working so hard to get everything ready. We can't wait for parents and students to see the finished product when school starts! USD 388 is planning on having an open house in September, to share what the community helped build. Thank you Ellis! More to come on a date.
